Chrysler Light Rosewood S/G Pearl (EF/REF) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This color is a mid-nineties time capsule. It is a soft, sophisticated rose hue that defined the cab-forward era for the entire Chrysler lineup in 1995. Because your car has likely been on the road for nearly thirty years, the original finish has probably mellowed or faded slightly from its factory depth. It is an earthy, muted red that looks elegant under a garage light but really reveals its depth once you get it out of the shade and into the direct sun.

Technical Details

This is a pearl finish, which Chrysler labeled as a Satin Glow. The mica flakes inside the paint are what create that signature shimmer, but they require a steady hand. If you apply the paint too heavily, these tiny particles will bunch up and create dark spots or uneven patches. You want to avoid "puddling" the paint. Instead, focus on building the color with thin, even layers. This ensures the pearls lay flat and reflect light uniformly across the repair area.

Best Practices

Locate your paint code on the driver's side door jamb sticker or on the metal identification plate located on the radiator support bar under the hood. Before you spray or dab Chrysler Light Rosewood S/G Pearl (check for code EF/REF), you need to shake it for at least 60 seconds to ensure the pearls are fully suspended in the mix. Always test the color on the included card first to see how it matches your aged paint. When you begin, keep the container moving and maintain a consistent flow to prevent the finish from looking blotchy. Give each layer plenty of drying time before adding the next to keep the repair crisp and level.
