Eagle Premier Touch Up Paint (33 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

The Eagle Premier arrived with a surprisingly adventurous palette of 33 colors, proving that even a sensible executive sedan could have some personality. They really went for it with the metallics-shades like Light Rosewood Pearl Metallic and Dark Driftwood Metallic gave the car a sophisticated shimmer. And if you're rocking Misty Rose Pearl Metallic, you've officially captured the peak of 1990s automotive fashion.

What to Watch For

The Premier used a baked enamel clear coat that was state-of-the-art for the time, but three decades of sun can take a toll. Keep an eye on the hood and the trunk lid; the paint in these areas tends to get "ashy" or start peeling as the top layer tires out. To make sure you've got the right match, head to the passenger side of the engine bay. Look for a metal plate on the inner fender well near the strut tower or the firewall. You're looking for a three-digit code that might be preceded by a "P" or "Q"-that's the secret key to your car's identity.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many Eagle colors are packed with metallic flakes and pearl, your biggest job is "waking up the sparkles." Before you touch the car, shake your touch-up pen or bottle for at least 60 seconds-if your arm isn't a little tired, you aren't done yet. When filling a chip, remember that less is more. Dab a tiny amount into the center of the spot and let it find its own level. If the chip is deep, it requires patience: apply one thin layer, wait twenty minutes, and then add another. Building it up slowly prevents that "blob" look and ensures the metallic flakes sit evenly.
