Plymouth Medium Khaki (matt) (CJM) Touch Up Paint

The Look

Since your Voyager has stayed on the road for nearly two decades, you already know it is a workhorse. This color was a brief but memorable choice during the final era of the nameplate. It is an earthy, military-inspired tone that gives the van a rugged, capable appearance rather than the typical suburban look. It hides road grime well, which is helpful if you use your vehicle for long hauls or outdoor adventures.

Technical Details

This finish is a metallic, which means it contains tiny flakes that reflect light. However, the matte nature of the paint adds a layer of difficulty. Unlike standard gloss finishes, you cannot sand or polish a matte surface to fix mistakes. If you try to buff out a drip or a speck of dust, you will create a shiny spot that ruins the effect. Before you spray or dab Plymouth Medium Khaki (matt) (check for code CJM), you need to understand that the metallic flakes must land evenly to avoid dark stripes or splotches.

Best Practices

To find your paint code, look for a silver or white sticker on the driver's side door jamb or the edge of the door itself. You are looking for a three-digit code following the letters PNT. When you are ready to begin, shake the container for a full minute to ensure those metallic flakes are suspended in the mix. Test the color on the included card to see how the flakes lay down before touching the car. If you are using a spray, keep the container moving in steady passes to prevent the paint from pooling. Because this is a matte finish, apply thin layers and let the drying time do the work. If you notice a heavy spot, resist the urge to wipe it; let it dry and keep your coats light.
