Hyundai ix35 Touch Up Paint (35 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Hyundai really let their imagination run wild with the IX35, racking up a total of 35 recorded colors. They didn't just stick to the basics; they gave us everything from the punchy Atomic Orange Metallic and Vivid Blue Metallic to the more sophisticated Black Noir Pearl. Whether your car looks like it belongs in a sunset or a boardroom, Hyundai made sure there was a shade for every personality. It's a diverse palette that proves they weren't afraid to "go for it" when it came to curb appeal.

What to Watch For

If you're driving one of the lighter shades like Polar White or Ceramic White, you might have noticed the paint acting a bit shy-specifically, it has a known habit of flaking or peeling away from the primer on the hood and roof. You'll also want to keep a close eye on the door handles and the edges of the front bumper, as the clear coat can get a little soft and start to lift in those high-traffic spots. To find your specific color match, open the driver's side door and look for a small black sticker on the door jamb (the "door shut"). You're looking for a simple 2 or 3-digit code like "TCW" or "PAE"-that's your golden ticket to the right bottle.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since many of these IX35 colors-like Red Allure or Indigo Blue-feature a "Pearl" or "Metallic" finish, the secret is in the shake. These paints have tiny mica flakes that like to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Give your touch-up pen or brush a vigorous shake for a full 60 seconds before you start to wake up those sparkles. When you apply the paint, think of it like nail polish: use thin, light layers rather than one big glob. If you're dealing with a spot that has already started to flake, gently flick away any loose bits with your fingernail first so your new paint has a solid surface to grab onto.
