Chrysler Glacier Metallic (BG/LBG) Touch Up Paint

The Look

Chrysler released this color as a dedicated specialty finish for the 2013 300 Series Glacier Edition. It isn't just another silver; it is an icy, high-character metallic designed to evoke the cold, sharp light of winter. Since your car was part of this limited production run, you are dealing with a shade that was meant to stand out against the usual sea of grayscale sedans. It carries a subtle blue undertone that stays crisp in the sun but can look like a deep, frozen grey in the shade. It does a decent job of hiding light dust, but because it relies on light reflection to show off that blue tint, keeping it clean is the only way to maintain the "Glacier" effect.

Technical Details

This is a high-metallic finish, which means it is loaded with tiny flakes that provide its signature shimmer. Metallic paints like this are prone to mottling, which looks like dark, uneven splotches or "tiger stripes" if the flakes don't lay down correctly. Because the 300 Series has such large, broad body panels, any inconsistency in how the metallic particles settle will be obvious. To get a professional result, you have to be mindful of how the light hits those flakes. If you apply it too heavily in one spot, the metal particles will sink and darken the color, ruining the icy match.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Chrysler Glacier Metallic (check for code BG/LBG), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can find your specific paint code on the driver's side door jamb, usually listed right after the "PNT:" prefix on the factory sticker. Test the color on the included card to confirm the match before you touch the actual bodywork. If you are working in your garage, keep the container moving at a steady pace and maintain a consistent spray distance. This ensures the metallic flakes distribute evenly rather than clumping. Give each layer enough drying time so the paint sets firm without sagging, which helps the metallic shimmer remain uniform across the repair.
