Hyundai Nexo Touch Up Paint (13 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Hyundai clearly wanted the hydrogen-powered Nexo to look like it arrived from the year 2050, offering a palette of 13 sophisticated, high-tech colors. We're talking about a serious commitment to metallic and pearl finishes, ranging from the popular Hyper White Tricoat and Amazon Gray Pearl to the rarer, punchier Copper Metallic. They didn't just give you a car; they gave you a rolling piece of science fiction, though they did lean heavily into the "50 shades of silver" vibe with options like Stellar Silver, Cocoon Silver, and Shimmering Silver.

What to Watch For

Before you pop that touch-up cap, we need to talk about the "White Elephant" in the room. Like many Hyundais from this era, the Nexo's white and pearl variants (specifically Hyper White and White Pearl Tricoat) can sometimes have a bit of a commitment issue with the primer. You might notice the paint bubbling or flaking off in chunks, particularly on the leading edge of the hood or near the roofline. If you see a chip, don't wait-seal it up immediately to prevent the air from getting under the edges and turning a tiny dot into a palm-sized problem. To find your specific shade, open the driver's door and look at the black sticker on the door jamb; your paint code is a 2 or 3-character alphanumeric string located right next to the word "PAINT."

Driveway Repair Tip

Since the Nexo is draped in complex pearls and tricoats, your touch-up bottle is basically a tiny chemistry set. Those metallic flakes love to settle at the bottom, so shake that bottle for a full two minutes-even when you think you're done, shake it for another thirty seconds to wake up the sparkles. When applying, resist the urge to fill a deep chip in one "blob." Instead, dab a tiny amount of paint into the center of the chip and let it flow to the edges. If you're working with a pearl or tricoat, this requires patience; thin, light layers will help the color match the surrounding panel much better than a single thick coat.
