Dodge Light Pick-up Touch Up Paint (7 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Dodge didn't just build trucks; they painted them with a certain "working man's flair." We've tracked 7 specific colors for the Light Pick-up, and they really leaned into the era. You've got everything from the workhorse Black to the surprisingly classy Cashmere and the "can't miss me in a parking lot" Impact Red. Whether yours is wearing the vintage Manila Cream or the sharp Brite Silver Metallic, these trucks were clearly designed to look as good at the hardware store as they do in the driveway.

What to Watch For

Now, let's talk shop. These trucks are famous for being "Ram Tough," but the clear coat sometimes decides it wants an early retirement. It's common to see a bit of "roof peel" or some bubbling starting near the door handles and rocker panels. Before you get started, you'll need your code. On most models, you'll find it on the driver's side door jamb on a sticker labeled "PNT." If you're driving one of the classics and it's not there, check the top of the radiator support under the hood-just be prepared to wipe away a little engine grease to see it.

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're working with one of those metallic shades like Brite Silver or Impact Red, here is the secret: shake that touch-up bottle like it owes you money. The tiny metallic flakes love to settle at the bottom, and a 60-second workout ensures they actually make it onto your truck. When applying, think "thin and patient." Use the tip of your brush to dab the color into the center of the chip and let it spread itself out. It's much better to do two light coats than one big, gloppy mountain of paint that takes three days to dry!
