Your Paint Color Profile

PRC - Firecracker Red

The Look

If you drive a Gladiator or a Wrangler, you already know that this isn't just a color-it's the definitive Jeep personality. It is a loud, unapologetic, and highly saturated primary red that looks just as home covered in trail mud as it does under the lights of a parking garage. Because this color has defined the brand's rugged image for years, it feels familiar and timeless. Whether you are patching a rock chip from a weekend in the woods or a door ding from the grocery store, this shade brings the energy back to your fenders and hood immediately.

Technical Details

This is a classic solid finish, meaning there are no metallic flakes or pearl additives hiding inside the bottle. The benefit of a solid color is that you do not have to worry about flakes laying down the wrong way and creating dark spots. However, solid reds are notoriously sensitive to the sun and can show swirl marks if you aren't careful. When you apply your touch-up, you are working with a high-pigment formula that covers very well but requires a smooth hand to ensure the height of the new paint matches the old.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Jeep Firecracker Red (check for code PRC), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can find your specific code on the driver's side door jamb or occasionally on the radiator support under the hood. To get the best result, test the color on the included card to ensure the shade matches your current level of paint fade. When applying, keep the container moving to avoid heavy buildup in one spot. Give the area plenty of drying time between layers, as rushing a thick coat of solid red can lead to soft spots that take forever to harden.

ensuring the right match

How to Find Your Jeep's Color Code

Jeep codes are difficult to find. In the good old days, they hid them on top of the radiator support, under engine grease and oil. Later models put them on the drivers door jamb. Typical format: BS/GBS; only BS is the color code (also QBS, PBS, TBS, etc.). The first letter is a "Year Code". BS corresponds to Deep Water Blue Pearl Clearcoat; the G in GBS is not part of the color code. Lately, Jeep lists just BS.

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.
