COLOR CODEBJK - Barossa Burgundy PearlGenesis Touch-Up Paint

The Look

If your GV70 or GV80 has picked up a few chips from the highway, you are dealing with the color that essentially defined the modern Genesis brand identity. This isn't a typical fire-engine red or a flat maroon. It is a deep, earthy wine color that helped put the Electrified-GV70 and GV60 on the map. It looks expensive because it is designed to shift character as you walk around the car. In the shade, it looks like a dark black cherry, but once the sun hits those curves, the red tones wake up and glow.

Technical Details

This finish is a pearl, which is more complex than a standard metallic. While a metallic paint uses simple flakes, this pearl uses multi-layered particles to create that signature depth. The risk with pearls is that they can look uneven or "patchy" if the particles aren't distributed properly during the repair. If the paint pools too much in one spot, the repair will look like a dark bruise rather than a glossy finish. It requires a bit of patience to get the layer thickness just right so the light bounces off the repair the same way it does the factory finish.

Best Practices

You will find the identification plate on the driver's side door jamb, right on the B-pillar. Before you spray or dab Genesis Barossa Burgundy Pearl (check for code BJK), you need to shake the container for at least sixty seconds to get those pearl particles off the bottom. Test the color on the included card first to see how the flakes settle. When you move to the car, keep the container moving to ensure the flow remains consistent and the particles land in a random, natural pattern. Let the surface have plenty of drying time between light layers rather than trying to cover the damage in one thick coat.
