Your Paint Color Profile

6-E/2 (1972) - Medium Bright Yellow

The Look

This is the unapologetic heart of 1972. Whether you are patching up a high-performance Mustang or a workhorse F-Series truck, this color is a pure time capsule. It carries that heavy, saturated seventies vibe that refuses to blend into the background. Since this was a one-year-only shade available across the entire Ford lineup, it marks your vehicle as a specific survivor of that era. It is bright, cheerful, and remarkably bold compared to the muted tones seen on the road today.

Technical Details

You are working with a solid finish, which means you do not have to worry about metallic flakes settling or looking uneven. However, yellow is a notoriously honest color. It has a naturally lower opacity, so it will show any dark spots or uneven primer underneath if you do not provide enough coverage. The benefit of a solid color is that it is much easier to blend into your existing paint than a complex pearl, making it the ideal candidate for a fix in your garage or a patch of shade.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Ford Medium Bright Yellow (check for code 6-E/2 (1972)), you need to shake it for a full sixty seconds. Yellow pigments are heavy and love to sit at the bottom of the container. You can find your official data plate on the driver's side door jamb to confirm the match. Always test the color on the included card to see how many layers you will need for full coverage before you touch the car. When you are ready to apply, keep the container moving to avoid any runs or pooling. Give each layer enough drying time so the finish stays crisp and level.

ensuring the right match

Find your Ford paint code

Ford paint color codes are on the drivers door jamb, on the color plate. The typical format is PM/M6599, though usually only PM appears. Example: PM corresponds to Bright Calypso Metallic Clearcoat PM/M6599; it may appear as PM Bright Calypso Metallic Clearcoat. Plates may show Exterior Paint Colors or EX PT; sometimes the color is embossed mid-plate. WB is wheelbase; above Wheel Base is EXT PNT, and to the right of EXT PNT is the code. Many mistake LX3 as the code.

Will absolutely order from this company again.

After ordering touch-up paint from Lexus I was still waiting for it a month later. If they'd told me upfront it would take that long I wouldn't have ordered in the first place. Paint Scratch was recommended by a friend who restores cars. Easy ordering, fair price and fast shipping. The color match is great especially considering my car is a 2012. Will absolutely order from this company again. Reason I chose this business: Lexus collision repair and a local collision repair. Will use paint less dent removal and touch up chipped paint myself. Reason I chose this product: Spouse sideswiped passenger side of car while backing out of garage. Mostly plastic transfer from his wheel well trim but pressure creased and cracked the paint causing a bare strip 1/8 wide x 4" long below door handle. Scratches on door handle and a few small chips on both doors.

Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans

Used Paint Scratch metallic custom mixed spray cans paint on a hood panel with excellent coverage and texture over the surface. Metallic paint can be very unforgiving out of a spray can, sputtering pigmentation dots on the panel being sprayed and thus ruining the paint job. No such issues with Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint spray cans. Paint sprayed strong and evenly till the last drop of paint in the can. Shipping time was faster than expected. Reason I chose this business: Having tried other brands of custom mixed metallic paint with terrible results, sputtering pigmentation tint dots from the spray nozzle in spite of vigorously shaking of can prior to application and loss of propellant rendering the lower fifth of the can's paint useless, Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint sprays out beautifully and strong all the way to the last gram of paint in the can. Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans for automotive restoration. Thank you Paint Scratch.
