Where to find Chrysler color code

How to Find Your Chrysler's Color Code

Chrysler paint codes can be difficult to find. In the good old days, they were on top of the radiator support, often hidden under engine grease and oil. Later models put them on the drivers door jamb. Typical format: BS/GBS, but only BS is the color code; it can also appear as QBS, PBS, TBS, etc., with the first letter as a confusing "Year Code." BS corresponds to Deep Water Blue Pearl Clearcoat; the G in GBS is not part of the color code.

Your Paint Color Profile

Spinnaker White

The Look

This color is a time capsule from the era of "Fine Corinthian Leather" and long, sweeping body lines. In 1977, this shade was a staple across the entire lineup, dressing everything from the massive New Yorker Brougham to the personal luxury of the Cordoba. It is a bright, crisp white that looks professional and clean, but it is also brutally honest. Since your Chrysler has been on the road for decades, you likely know that this finish reveals every bit of road grime and tar the moment you pull out of the driveway. When it is fresh, however, nothing makes that heavy 1970s chrome work pop quite like this does.

Technical Details

You are working with a solid finish, which is the best-case scenario for a DIY repair. Unlike the temperamental metallics of the same year, this white does not contain any flakes that might settle unevenly or create dark spots if your technique is slightly off. The main challenge you face is the age of the surrounding paint. Over forty years, original white paint tends to "chalk" or yellow slightly from sun exposure. Because there is no metallic shimmer to distract the eye, a fresh patch can look very bright against older, weathered panels. To get a perfect match, you may need to polish the area around the chip first to bring back the original luster.

Best Practices

To find your confirmation, look for the metal fender tag screwed to the inner driver-side fender under the hood; the code W1 should be stamped clearly near the bottom. Before you spray or dab Chrysler Spinnaker White (check for code W-1 (1977)), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. This ensures the pigments are fully integrated so the color is uniform. Always test the color on the included card to see how it looks once dry before you touch the car. When applying, work in a cool garage or the shade to prevent the paint from drying too fast. If you are using a can, keep the container moving in steady passes to avoid buildup. If you are using a pen or brush, use thin layers and allow plenty of drying time between them to build the paint up to the level of the original finish.

Will absolutely order from this company again.

After ordering touch-up paint from Lexus I was still waiting for it a month later. If they'd told me upfront it would take that long I wouldn't have ordered in the first place. Paint Scratch was recommended by a friend who restores cars. Easy ordering, fair price and fast shipping. The color match is great especially considering my car is a 2012. Will absolutely order from this company again. Reason I chose this business: Lexus collision repair and a local collision repair. Will use paint less dent removal and touch up chipped paint myself. Reason I chose this product: Spouse sideswiped passenger side of car while backing out of garage. Mostly plastic transfer from his wheel well trim but pressure creased and cracked the paint causing a bare strip 1/8 wide x 4” long below door handle. Scratches on door handle and a few small chips on both doors.

Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans

Used Paint Scratch metallic custom mixed spray cans paint on a hood panel with excellent coverage and texture over the surface. Metallic paint can be very unforgiving out of a spray can, sputtering pigmentation dots on the panel being sprayed and thus ruining the paint job. No such issues with Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint spray cans. Paint sprayed strong and evenly till the last drop of paint in the can. Shipping time was faster than expected. Reason I chose this business: Having tried other brands of custom mixed metallic paint with terrible results, sputtering pigmentation tint dots from the spray nozzle in spite of vigorously shaking of can prior to application and loss of propellant rendering the lower fifth of the can's paint useless, Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint sprays out beautifully and strong all the way to the last gram of paint in the can. Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans for automotive restoration. Thank you Paint Scratch.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find my vehicle’s paint code?

Your paint code is usually found in the driver’s door jamb, trunk, or under the hood. See our Chrysler Paint Code Guide for detailed instructions.

Will this paint match my car?

Because your Chrysler is older or uncommon, the most accurate option is custom matching where you mail in a small painted part for a hand match. Our paint technicians usually do a great job matching Chrysler color code 'W-1 (1977)' but a perfect match cannot be guaranteed.

Do I need primer and clearcoat?

While primer is recommended on bare metal or plastic, clearcoat is essential: it protects the basecoat and restores factory gloss.

How long does shipping take?

Orders are mixed fresh and ship within 3–5 business days. Delivery takes 2–14 days depending on location.

Which touch up product should I choose?

 It depends on the size of the damage:

  • Paint Pen (½ oz) – Best for very small chips and fine scratches.
  • Brush Bottle (2 oz) – Great for medium chips or scratches up to the size of a quarter.
  • Spray Can – Ideal for larger areas and panels.
  • Professional Sizes (Pint, Quart, Gallon) – Designed for full panel and vehicle resprays using spray equipment.

Not sure? If it’s just rock chips or small scratches, start with a Paint Pen.

Can I return my order?

Yes! If there’s a color match issue, we’ll replace the product or give you your money back. You also can return unopened, non-custom accessories for a full refund.

How long will the paint last in storage?

Paint pens and bottles last about a year if stored cool and dry. Spray cans can last several years if the nozzle is cleaned.
