The Look

This color represents a specific moment in the late 1980s when Dodge moved away from the bold primaries of the muscle car era toward soft, sophisticated pastels. Since your car has likely lived through nearly four decades of sun and weather, the finish might look a bit different today than it did in the showroom. This rose hue was a common choice for daily drivers like the Omni or the Caravan, providing a subtle glow that hides road dust much better than a flat white or a deep black.

Technical Details

Because this is a Pearl Metallic finish, you are dealing with tiny flakes of mica and metal suspended in the paint. These particles are heavy and love to sink to the bottom of the container. If you do not get them moving, your repair will look like a flat pink smudge instead of a shimmering rose. If the flakes clump together during application, you will see dark streaks across the surface. This finish relies on even distribution to catch the light correctly and match the surrounding panels.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Dodge Misty Rose Pearl Metallic (check for code EE2), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can usually find your paint code on a paper sticker inside the driver's door jamb or stamped into a metal plate on the radiator support under the hood. Test the color on the included card to see how it matches the aged paint on your panels. When you start, keep the container moving to ensure the metallic particles lay down flat. Give each layer enough drying time in the garage or shade so the next pass does not lift the pearls you just laid down.
