COLOR CODEX37 - BlackMitsubishi Touch-Up Paint

The Look

Choosing this finish for your Mirage proves you value a classic, sharp aesthetic over the louder, brighter options in the lineup. It transforms a compact car into something that feels more substantial and grounded. While this deep tone hides small road grime, it will highlight every bit of dust or pollen the moment you pull out of the wash. It is a high-maintenance choice that rewards you with a deep, liquid-like reflection when you keep the car clean.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish packed with fine particles that catch the light to create depth. Because those particles are suspended in the paint, you have to be careful about mottling. If you apply too much paint in one area, the metallic flakes cluster together and create dark streaks or splotches that look uneven under the sun. Achieving a consistent look depends on your layering technique and keeping your application steady across the surface.

Best Practices

You can find your color identification on a silver plate located on the passenger side center pillar, right where the door latches. Before you spray or dab Mitsubishi Black (check for code X37), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. Shaking ensures those metallic flakes are distributed through the mix. Always test the color on the included card to confirm the match against your car. When you start your repair in the garage or the shade, keep the container moving to avoid pooling, and give each layer enough drying time so the finish can set.
