Daewoo Khaki Beige Metallic (62U) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This shade is a snapshot of 1999. Since it appeared for a single year across the lineup, your car is a survivor from the era of the Lanos or Nubira. It captures that late-nineties trend where earth tones and champagne golds ruled the road. Because it sits between a tan and a light silver, it is a great color for hiding road grime and dust. If your Daewoo has been on the road for over two decades, this beige is the reason it looks cleaner than the neighbor's car after a week of commuting.

Technical Details

You are working with a metallic finish. This means tiny aluminum flakes float inside the pigment. If you apply the paint in thick layers, those flakes clump and create dark, muddy patches. This is mottling. It happens when the paint stays wet, allowing the metal particles to sink. To get an even finish, you want the flakes to stay where they land. Avoid the temptation to cover the damage in one pass.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Daewoo Khaki Beige Metallic (check for code 62U), shake it for 60 seconds. You find your ID plate on the center of the firewall under the hood or along the radiator support bar. To ensure the flakes settle, test the color on the included card. This lets you see the metallic density before you touch the car. Keep the container moving to maintain a constant flow. Give the surface plenty of drying time in a covered garage or a patch of shade. This keeps the environment stable so the metal particles lock into place without interference from wind or heat.
