Daewoo Lanos Touch Up Paint (20 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Daewoo didn't just build a sensible commuter; they gave us a surprisingly vibrant palette of 20 colors to choose from. They really went for it with shades like Lemon Yellow and Yellow Green Metallic, proving that "budget-friendly" didn't have to mean "boring." Whether you're sporting the classic Galaxy White, the deep Harvard Blue Mica, or the punchy Super Red, your Lanos was designed to stand out in a parking lot full of much more expensive (and often much more beige) rivals.

What to Watch For

To find your specific color code, pop the hood and look at the radiator support bar (the metal frame right above the radiator) or the firewall. Because these cars were often the "daily warriors" of the family, keep an eye on the roof and hood. The clear coat on Lanos models from this era can get a bit tired from sun exposure, leading to some flaking or a chalky look. If you see a little bit of "sunburn" starting on those flat surfaces, don't worry-it's nothing a steady hand and a fresh touch-up can't handle.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many Daewoo colors-like Spinel Red Pearl or Pacific Blue Metallic-feature heavy metallic or pearl flakes, your best friend is a vigorous 60-second shake. You want those tiny sparkles distributed evenly in the bottle, not clumped at the bottom. When applying, think "thin and patient." Use the tip of your brush to dab the paint into the center of the chip and let it flow to the edges. It's much easier to add a second light layer later than it is to deal with one big, gloopy mountain of paint.
