COLOR CODEYR-592M - Orangeburst MetallicHonda Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This color was the high-energy face of the Honda Fit Sport and the HR-V, designed to make these small vehicles feel punchy and athletic. Since your car has likely been on the road for several years, you have probably noticed how this orange maintains a deep, warm glow that stands out in a sea of gray and white. It is a bold choice that suits the active personality of a Honda hatchback, but it can be unforgiving if the repair is not handled with care.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish, which means it relies on tiny flakes to reflect light and create that "burst" effect. The biggest challenge with metallic paint is mottling, where the flakes clump together and create dark, uneven splotches or stripes. This usually happens if the paint is applied too heavily in one spot or if the container is not mixed properly. Because orange is a translucent pigment, it takes a few thin layers to build up the right depth, so do not try to cover the damage in a single pass.

Best Practices

You can find your paint information on the manufacturing sticker located inside the driver's side door jamb. Before you apply Honda Orangeburst Metallic (verify the code YR-592M), shake the container for at least two full minutes to ensure the metallic particles are not sitting at the bottom. Test the color on the included card to confirm the shade matches before you touch the car. Work in a cool garage or the shade to prevent the sun from shortening your drying time too much. When applying, keep the container moving to ensure the flake distributes evenly, and allow each layer to become tacky before adding the next.
