Caspian Blue Metallic BEC1349/JDB (H0952) Touch-Up Paint for Fleet

The Look

This isn't just a simple industrial blue. It is a deep, professional shade that carries a metallic pulse, giving your vehicle a sophisticated edge that flat colors can't match. Because this color served as a standard for decades, it is a true survivor-built to look authoritative on everything from commercial haulers to classic motorcycles. If your vehicle has been on the road since the late nineties or earlier, this blue is what provides that crisp, dignified finish that hides road wear while still catching the sun.

Technical Details

Because this is a metallic finish, the final appearance depends entirely on how the tiny flakes are suspended in the blue pigment. The biggest risk here is mottling, which occurs when those flakes cluster together to create dark, blotchy patches or uneven stripes. This usually happens if the paint is applied too heavily in one spot or if the tool isn't handled with a steady rhythm. To get that factory-correct shimmer, you need to ensure the flakes are distributed evenly across the surface.

Best Practices

Locating your paint code is usually as simple as checking the driver's side door pillar or looking for an identification plate under the hood. Before you spray or dab Fleet Caspian Blue Metallic BEC1349/JDB (check for code H0952), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to wake up the metallic particles that like to settle at the bottom. Test the color on the included card to confirm the match against your existing finish. When you're ready to start, work in the shade of your garage and keep the container moving at a constant speed to maintain an even flow. Patience is your friend here; allow plenty of drying time between your layers so the metallic flakes set exactly where they belong.
