Itasca Antique Sage Pearl Metallic (54757) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This color defined the 2005 to 2009 era for Itasca motorhomes. Whether you are touching up a Sunova, a Navion, or a Suncruiser, this earthy green-gray was the gold standard for hiding road salt and highway dust. It is a sophisticated tone that looks at home in a forest or a desert. Since your coach has been on the road for a decade or more, the original finish has likely shifted slightly from UV exposure, but this shade remains one of the best for blending into the natural environment.

Technical Details

This is a Pearl Metallic finish. The depth comes from microscopic flakes that reflect light at different angles. Because these particles are heavier than the paint pigment, they tend to settle at the bottom of the container. If you apply the paint too heavy in one spot, the metallics will clump together and create dark patches or stripes. This finish requires patience and thin layers to ensure the metal and pearl flakes lay flat and catch the light correctly.

Best Practices

Before you apply Itasca Antique Sage Pearl Metallic (verify you have code 54757), you must shake the container for at least two full minutes. This is the only way to mix the pearl particles back into the solution. You can find your paint code on the Motor Home Component Information Sheet inside your InfoCase or on the label located on the driver side door frame. Always test the color on the included card before you touch the actual vehicle. Work in your garage or in the shade to avoid direct sunlight drying the paint too fast. Keep the container moving at a steady pace to prevent the metallic flakes from bunching up. After the final layer, allow a longer drying time before you think about adding a clear coat or buffing the area.
