Travel Black Metallic (42154) Touch Up Paint

The Look

Your 2006 Supreme comes from an era where high-end motorhomes prioritized a commanding presence. This is a sophisticated, dark finish that gives the coach a heavy, expensive weight. It is not a flat black; the depth comes from the way the light hits the metallic particles. Since your vehicle has been exposed to the elements for nearly twenty years, the original finish has likely lost some of its initial bite. Bringing this color back to life helps hide those small road-wear imperfections that always stand out on such a dark surface.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish, which means success depends entirely on how the flakes settle. If you apply the paint too thick, the metallic particles will clump together and create dark streaks or shadows. This uneven look is called mottling, and it happens when the paint stays wet for too long on the surface. To get a match that blends in, you must apply thin, even layers. This allows the flakes to lock into place properly so the light reflects off the repair just like it does on the rest of the body.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Travel Black Metallic (check for code 42154), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can usually find your paint code plate inside the bedroom wardrobe, under the driver seat, or on the door frame of the main entry door. Because the metal flakes in this mixture are heavy, they will settle at the bottom of the container. Shake it often during the process. Always test the color on the included card to verify the flake density before you touch the vehicle. Keep the container moving to avoid pooling, and give each layer plenty of drying time to ensure the metallic finish stays uniform.
