Chrysler Blue Streak Pearl (CL/KCL) Touch Up Paint

The Look

Your 200 Series was part of a brief era where Chrysler injected some real personality into the mid-sized sedan market. This specific blue was the high-energy choice of that lineup, offering a deep, electric glow that makes the car look more expensive than a standard commuter. Since your car has been on the road for several years, you have likely noticed that this shade is a magnet for small stone chips. Touching it up is a smart move, as vibrant blues like this lose their visual impact once the surface is peppered with gray or white nicks.

Technical Details

This is a pearl finish, which is more complex than a standard solid paint. Before you spray or dab Chrysler Blue Streak Pearl (check for code CL/KCL), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. Inside the liquid, microscopic mica flakes are suspended to catch the sun. If you do not mix them thoroughly, the repair will look like a flat, dark blue smudge instead of a matching shimmer. These pearls are sensitive to how heavy you apply the paint; heavy layers cause the flakes to sink and darken, while light, even layers allow them to reflect light properly.

Best Practices

To confirm you have the right match, look for the manufacturer's sticker inside the driver's side door jamb; it is usually a white or silver label near the latch. Once you are ready to work, find a spot in your garage or some reliable shade. Test the color on the included card first to ensure the pearl density looks right against your existing finish. When you apply the paint, keep the container moving to avoid pooling. If you are using a pen or brush, use several thin dabs rather than one heavy coat. Give the area plenty of drying time before you apply a clear coat to protect those delicate pearls from the elements.
