Hyundai Gran Premio Gray Pearl (YG3) Touch Up Paint

The Look

Your Genesis Coupe carries a shade that helped define Hyundai's aggressive entry into the sports car world. This isn't a flat, commuter gray; it is a deep charcoal designed to highlight the sharp body lines and wide stance of a rear-wheel-drive performer. Because your car has likely been on the road for over a decade, the finish has faced plenty of sun and road debris, so your repair will help restore that high-tech, street-ready appearance.

Technical Details

This is a pearl finish, which means the paint is packed with tiny reflective particles that give the gray its depth. Pearl finishes are notorious for clumping if they aren't mixed properly, which can lead to dark, patchy spots on your panel. If you apply the paint too heavily in one area, those flakes won't settle evenly, and the repair will look like a different color entirely when the sun hits it. Consistency is the secret to making this charcoal shade look uniform.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Hyundai Gran Premio Gray Pearl (check for code YG3), you need to shake the container vigorously for at least two minutes to fully suspend the pearl flakes. You can verify your color match by looking at the manufacturing sticker located on the driver's side door jamb. Always test the color on the included card to ensure the flake density looks right before moving to the car. While applying, keep the container moving to prevent the paint from pooling and ensure the finish stays level. Give the repair plenty of drying time between layers to maintain a crisp, factory-correct look in the garage.
