Your Paint Color Profile

L0071EB - Medium Blue (Catalyzed Spray Can Only)

The Look

This is a professional, no-nonsense fleet blue designed for trucks that spend their lives on the interstate. Since your 2016 rig has likely seen a few million miles of road debris and weather, this color is a practical choice for keeping the fleet looking uniform. It is a deep, authoritative blue that lacks the flash of a show truck but carries the quiet confidence of a reliable workhorse. Because it appeared in such a narrow window, you are maintaining a specific slice of Freightliner history.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, which means you have zero metallic flake or pearl to hide behind. Solid colors are honest; they show every ripple in the metal and every scratch in your primer if you do not sand properly. The benefit is that you do not have to worry about the color looking different from different angles, but the trade-off is that your surface preparation must be perfect. Before you apply Freightliner Medium Blue (Catalyzed Spray Can Only) (look for code L0071EB on your door tag), ensure the surface is smooth, or the gloss will highlight every bump.

Best Practices

You will usually find your color information on a data plate inside the driver's side door jamb or occasionally on the side of the driver's seat base. Because this is a catalyzed product, the paint hardens through a chemical reaction rather than just air drying, making it much tougher against diesel spills and sun fade. Shake the container for at least two full minutes to ensure the catalyst and pigments mix completely. Keep the container moving in steady, overlapping passes and maintain a consistent spray distance to avoid runs. Always test the color on the included card to confirm the match against your aged paint before you touch the truck. Give each layer enough drying time so the surface is no longer tacky before you add more depth.

Find your Freightliner paint code

The Freightliner color code is obtained by contacting Freightliner to see if they can determine the color code. If there is no color code, the alternative is the PPG or Dupont (Axalta) paint formula number.

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.
