COLOR CODE760/B103 - Bronze Blue PearlIsuzu Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This color defines the era when the Trooper and the Pickup transitioned from rugged farm tools to suburban icons. It is a deep, sophisticated teal that looks like dark water until the light hits it. Because your Isuzu has likely been on the road since the mid-90s, the finish has probably developed a unique character from years of sun and weather. It is a hardworking color that hides road grime well, but it demands respect during a touch-up because of its complex depth.

Technical Details

This is a pearl finish, which means it contains translucent flakes that catch the light to create that "bronze" shift. Pearl paints are trickier than solid colors because the way the flakes lay down determines the final shade. If you apply the paint too heavily, the flakes will bunch together and make the spot look darker than the rest of the panel. To get a clean match, you must apply the paint in thin, light layers. Before you spray or dab Isuzu Bronze Blue Pearl (check for code 760/B103), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to get those heavy particles off the bottom of the container.

Best Practices

You will usually find your paint code on a metal identification plate riveted to the firewall inside the engine compartment. Once you are ready to begin, work in a garage or the shade to keep the surface cool. Test the color on the included card to see how the pearl reacts to different light angles. When applying, keep the container moving to ensure the flakes distribute across the repair area without clumping. Allow plenty of drying time between your light layers. If the repair looks a bit dull compared to your original paint, a clear coat will bring back the gloss and help those bronze highlights pop.
