Mercedes-Benz Jupiter Red (589/3589) Touch Up Paint

The Look

Jupiter Red is the high-energy heartbeat of the compact Mercedes lineup. While many Mercedes-Benz finishes lean toward a quiet, executive dignity, this shade is unashamedly loud. It gives the CLA-Class and GLA-Class a sharp, aggressive edge that mimics the look of much more expensive performance cars. On the B-Class, it provides a punch of personality, and on a Sprinter, it transforms a utilitarian tool into a standout mobile billboard. This is a pure, fire-engine red that demands attention in any parking lot.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, which is excellent news for your repair. Because there are no metallic flakes or pearl particles buried in the paint, you do not have to worry about the angle of the spray or the way light hits the texture. The color is consistent throughout. However, red pigments are notoriously sensitive to the sun. Since your vehicle may have been on the road since as early as 2006, the original finish might have lightened or lost some of its depth over time. A solid red is easy to apply, but it reveals every bit of dirt, so ensure your work area in the garage is as clean as possible.

Best Practices

You will find your paint code on a sticker located on the driver-side door jamb. Before you spray or dab Mercedes-Benz Jupiter Red (check for code 589/3589), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. This ensures the heavy red pigments are fully mixed so the color comes out as deep as the factory intended. Test the color on the included card to see how it looks against your current bodywork before touching the car. To avoid heavy build-up or drips, keep the container moving across the surface and allow plenty of drying time between each light layer.
