Saab Light Titanium Gray (Interior) (WA311N) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This color represents the final chapter of Scandinavian design before the lights went out at the factory. Found exclusively in the 2010 to 2012 models like the redesigned 9-5 and the rare 9-4X, this shade was meant to bridge the gap between organic comfort and jet-cockpit technology. It is a sophisticated, cool-toned gray that avoids the yellow undertones found in older interiors. Since your Saab has likely been on the road for over a decade, you are probably dealing with door handle wear or center console scuffs. This color is designed to mimic technical materials, so it needs to look crisp and clean to maintain that modern cockpit aesthetic.

Technical Details

The finish contains a fine metallic flake designed to catch the light without looking like a disco ball. Metallics are notorious for "mottling," which is just a fancy way of saying the silver bits can clump together and look like dark stripes or spots. This happens if the paint is applied too heavy in one spot or if the temperature in your garage is too cold. Because this is an interior trim color, any inconsistency in the flake will stand out every time the sun hits your dashboard. You want the flakes to lay down flat and even to replicate that factory brushed-metal appearance.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Saab Light Titanium Gray (Interior) (check for code WA311N), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can usually find your paint code on the silver sticker located on the driver side door jamb or tucked inside the glovebox. To get the best result, test the color on the included card first to ensure the metallic density looks right. When you move to the car, keep the container moving at all times to prevent the paint from pooling. If you are using a pen or brush for a small scratch, use light, thin layers rather than one heavy glob. This helps the metallic particles distribute naturally and prevents the repair from looking darker than the surrounding trim.
