Your Paint Color Profile

YEV - Silver (Trim)

The Look

Since your Kona or Ioniq-5 has been on the road for a few seasons, you've likely noticed that the lower accents take the brunt of the abuse. This specific shade is the industrial-chic frame for Hyundai's modern EV design language, providing that sharp, metallic contrast against the main body panels. It is designed to look like machined metal rather than painted plastic, which makes it great for hiding light road dust but a magnet for noticeable stone chips. Because it sits so low on the rockers and bumpers, keeping these trim pieces crisp is what keeps the whole car looking factory-fresh.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish with a complex, satin-to-matte personality. Unlike the high-gloss paint on your hood, this trim color relies on a very specific distribution of silver flakes to catch the light correctly. The danger here is mottling-if those flakes aren't distributed evenly, you will end up with dark, cloudy patches or tiger stripes that look "off" compared to the rest of the trim. It is a sensitive finish, meaning the thickness of your layers will directly change how dark or light the silver appears once it dries.

Best Practices

You will find your factory sticker located inside the driver's side door jamb. Before you spray or dab Hyundai Silver (Trim) (check for code YEV), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to ensure the metallic particles are fully suspended. Test the color on the included card to see how the metallic flake settles before touching the car. Whether you are using a nozzle or a brush, keep the container moving to prevent the paint from pooling, which causes the silver to look too dark. If the scratch is deep, apply two thin layers rather than one heavy one, allowing plenty of drying time between them to maintain that flat, metallic look.

ensuring the right match

How to Find Your Hyundai's Color Code

Hyundai paint codes are normally on the drivers door jamb; some models hide the color code in the engine compartment. Typical format: 3E which corresponds to: Blue Onyx Metallic Clearcoat. Some later Hyundais use a three character code. A paint can be S3; this is actually the same as S3B. Same color code, different name: the same paint may be used across models, e.g., 3E as Blue Onyx Metallic Clearcoat, Blue Clearcoat, or Ocean Blue Clearcoat.

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.
