COLOR CODEXU6/U6 - Haze Blue PearlHyundai Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This color defines the era when Hyundai moved from simple transport to sophisticated design. Whether it is on a compact i10, a nimble i20, or the more executive Genesis, the finish provides a slate-like blue that shifts character as the sun goes down. Because your car has likely been on the road for a decade or more, the original finish might look a little more muted than it did in the showroom. This shade is a workhorse that hides road grime well, but it deserves a clean repair to maintain that upscale, misty appearance.

Technical Details

This is a pearl finish, which means it contains translucent mica particles instead of just standard metallic flakes. These particles act like tiny prisms, giving the surface a deep glow when the light hits it. The benefit is a finish that masks fine scratches and swirls better than a flat blue. The risk comes from how the pearls settle. If the paint goes on too heavy, the mica can clump together, creating dark spots or a blotchy look that ruins the factory match. Consistency is the secret to getting this right in your garage.

Best Practices

You will usually find your paint code on a sticker inside the driver side door jamb or sometimes on the firewall under the hood. Before you apply Hyundai Haze Blue Pearl (confirm your code is XU6/U6), you must shake the container for a full two minutes. Those heavy pearl particles love to sink to the bottom, and they need to be fully mixed to match the rest of your car. Test the color on the included card first to see how it looks against your aged paint. When you are ready, keep the container moving to ensure an even flow and give each thin layer plenty of drying time.
