Chrysler Jaspis Steel Blue Effect (PBM) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This is a serious color for serious cars. Whether it is on a Chrysler 300 Series, the beefy Aspen, or the nimble Crossfire, this blue carries a heavy grey undertone that makes the metal look like it was carved from a block of frozen lake water. It represents the peak of the mid-2000s executive aesthetic. Since your car has likely been on the road for over a decade, the original finish has probably matured, losing some of its factory brightness. Keep that in mind as you work to blend your repair into the aged panels.

Technical Details

This finish is a metallic, which means it is packed with tiny flakes designed to catch the light. The biggest risk here is mottling. If you apply the paint too heavily in one spot, those flakes will clump together and create dark, blotchy patches that look like shadows on the surface. To get that factory look, you need those flakes to lay flat and uniform across the repair area.

Best Practices

You will find your verification label on the driver's side door jamb, usually listed right after the PNT prefix. Before you spray or dab Chrysler Jaspis Steel Blue Effect (check for code PBM), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. Those metallic flakes settle at the bottom of the container and must be fully mixed to match the rest of your car. Test the color on the included card first to get a feel for the flow. When you begin the repair, keep the container moving at a steady pace to prevent pooling. Respect the drying time between thin layers so the metallic particles stay exactly where you put them.
