Isata Med.Neutral.Metallic (MM102K) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This color is the hallmark of the high-end motorhome aesthetic. It sits in that sophisticated sweet spot between a warm champagne and a dusty taupe, designed specifically to keep your home on wheels looking pristine even after a thousand miles of interstate grime. Since your Isata has been out in the elements, you will notice this shade is a master of disguise, hiding road salt and dust better than almost any other finish in the lineup. It provides a quiet, expensive-looking shimmer that doesn't scream for attention but certainly commands respect when you pull into the park.

Technical Details

You are dealing with a true metallic finish, which means the paint is packed with tiny aluminum flakes. These flakes are responsible for that rich depth, but they require a bit of respect during the repair. The biggest risk with a metallic is mottling, where the flakes clump together and create dark, blotchy patches. This happens if the paint stays wet for too long or goes on too heavy, causing the metal bits to sink and cluster. To get a match that disappears into the original finish, you need to ensure those flakes lay down flat and even across the surface.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Isata Med.Neutral.Metallic (check for code MM102K), you need to shake the container for at least sixty seconds to fully suspend those metallic particles. You can usually find your paint data on a label inside the driver's door jamb, though on some models, it is tucked inside a wardrobe closet or the utility center. Always test the color on the included card to ensure the flake density looks right before touching the actual bodywork. When applying, keep the container moving to avoid heavy buildup in one spot. Work in a cool, covered garage rather than direct sunlight, and allow plenty of drying time between light layers to prevent the color from darkening or sagging.
