Dodge Electric Blue Pearl (B5/AB5) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This is the high-octane blue that helped launch the SRT-4 Neon and transformed the Ram into a street-dominating machine. It is a loud, unapologetic enthusiast color that defined the Mopar performance era. Since your Charger or Challenger has likely spent years under the sun, the finish has probably developed a specific character. It is a deep, energetic blue that does not just sit on the metal; it reacts to the light. This color is synonymous with speed, and when you get it right, the repair will blend into that high-energy legacy.

Technical Details

This is a pearl finish, which means it contains microscopic mica flakes that catch the light. These flakes are heavier than the blue pigment and naturally want to sink to the bottom of the container. If you skip the mixing process, your repair will look like a flat, dark smudge instead of a bright blue pop. The challenge with a pearl is getting those flakes to lay flat and even. If the paint goes on too thick, the flakes will bunch up and create dark spots. You want thin, even layers to let the depth of the blue show through.

Best Practices

You will usually find your code on the driver's side door jamb on the manufacturer's safety sticker. Before you spray or dab Dodge Electric Blue Pearl (check for code B5/AB5), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. This is non-negotiable for a pearl finish because you need those mica flakes fully suspended in the liquid. Test the color on the included card before moving to the car to ensure the flow is smooth. Whether you are using a nozzle or a brush, keep the container moving to avoid pooling. Work in a garage or the shade to ensure a steady drying time and to prevent the sun from cooking the finish before it levels out.
