Dodge Raider Touch Up Paint (8 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Dodge didn't hold back when they launched the Raider, giving us a palette of 8 colors that perfectly capture that "rugged 80s adventurer" vibe. They really went for it with choices ranging from the high-energy San Marino Yellow and Monaco Red to the more sophisticated-and very brown-Medium Louvre Brown Metallic. Whether yours is a classic Black or a shimmering Grace Silver Metallic, these colors were designed to look just as good covered in mud as they do in your driveway.

What to Watch For

Since the Raider is a classic child of the late 80s, its paint has a few "vintage" quirks. The biggest hurdle is the clear coat; after decades of sun exposure, it tends to get a little tired, leading to white oxidation or peeling on the roof and hood. You should also check the door handles and window sills, where frequent use can wear the paint down to the primer.

To find your specific color match, you'll need to do a little detective work. Look for a metal ID plate located under the hood on the radiator support or the firewall. It's often covered in a layer of old engine grease, so give it a quick wipe. You're looking for a three-digit code (like R82 for Red or H84 for Silver) usually preceded by the letters "PNT."

Driveway Repair Tip

Since five of the eight Raider colors are metallics, your biggest friend is a good arm workout. Before you open that touch-up bottle or pen, shake it for at least 60 seconds. Those tiny metallic flakes like to settle at the bottom, and if you don't wake them up, your touch-up spot will look like a flat "blob" instead of a shimmering match.

When applying, remember: Dab, don't brush. Use the tip of your applicator to deposit a tiny drop of paint into the center of the chip and let it spread itself out. If the chip is deep, it requires patience-apply one thin layer, let it dry for 20 minutes, and then add another until it's level with the rest of the paint.
