COLOR CODE6T2 - Eucalyptus Pearl MetallicLexus Touch-Up Paint

The Look

If you drive an LX470 in this shade, you own a piece of Lexus history. This earthy green was only available for a short window between 2003 and 2005, making it a rare sight even at collector meets. It avoids the flashiness of bright silver or black, offering a rugged, sophisticated look that feels right at home on a trail or in a city. Since your vehicle has likely spent two decades outdoors, the original pigment might have shifted slightly from its factory state, but this color remains one of the best choices for hiding road dust and light scratches.

Technical Details

This finish is a complex Pearl Metallic, meaning it relies on tiny mica flakes to catch the light. This gives the paint a deep glow, but it also makes the application sensitive. If you apply the paint too thick or in heavy globs, those metallic particles will clump together and create dark, muddy patches known as mottling. To get a clean result, you want to build the color with light, even passes. This allows the metallic bits to lay flat and reflect light uniformly across the surface.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Lexus Eucalyptus Pearl Metallic (check for code 6T2), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can find your specific code on the driver side door jamb on the VIN sticker, usually listed next to the "C/TR" text. To ensure a good match, work in a cool garage or the shade so the paint does not dry too fast and trap the metallic flakes in an uneven position. Test the color on the included card first to see how the pearl reacts to your lighting. Whether you are using a nozzle or a brush, keep the container moving to maintain a steady flow and prevent the heavy particles from settling at the bottom. Give the paint plenty of drying time between layers to ensure the finish stays level and smooth.
