Suzuki Bright Red Tricoat (ZWP) Touch Up Paint

The Look

Your Suzuki was born to stand out in this shade. Whether you drive a Swift, Baleno, or Ertiga, this color gives the car an aggressive, high-energy personality that a flat red simply cannot match. It is the kind of red that looks like it is still wet even when it is bone dry. Since your car has likely seen a few years of sun and road debris, you will notice this color has a deep, glowing quality that makes it one of the most popular choices for Suzuki owners who want their vehicle to feel premium rather than basic.

Technical Details

This is a Pearl finish, which presents a unique challenge for your repair. Because it is a multi-stage color, the red layer is naturally translucent. This transparency is what allows the pearl particles to catch the light, but it also means the color you see depends heavily on how many layers you apply. If you apply it too thin, the repair will look light or pinkish. If you pile it on too heavy, the spot will look like a dark bruise on your fender. You have to balance the depth by building the color slowly to match the factory finish.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Suzuki Bright Red Tricoat (check for code ZWP), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can usually find your color plate on the firewall behind the engine or tucked inside the passenger side door pillar on a silver identification tag. Once you locate it, ensure the surface is clean and cool to the touch in a Garage or a patch of Shade. Test the color on the included card to see how many layers it takes to reach the right depth. When you start, keep the container moving to maintain an even Flow. Give each layer enough drying time so the finish stays crisp and avoid working in direct sunlight where the metal is too hot. A little patience with the layering will make the repair disappear into the original glow of the car.
