Hyundai Verna Paint Info
The Color Breakdown
Hyundai didn't just release a car with the Verna; they released a personality test. With 31 recorded colors, they really went for it. Whether you are rocking the vibrant Blazing Yellow Pearl, the surprisingly refreshing Mint Green Metallic, or the sophisticated Stargazing Blue Metallic, there is no shortage of "main character energy" in this lineup. From the deep Midnight Gray to the punchy Phoenix Orange, the Verna has seen every end of the rainbow.
What to Watch For
Now, let's talk reality. If you own a Verna in Ceramic White or Noble White, you might have noticed the paint has a bit of an "independent streak"-as in, it sometimes tries to leave the car. White shades on these models are known to peel or flake in larger sections, particularly around the roof and hood. If you're seeing a chip, jump on it quickly before it decides to invite its friends to the party.
To get started, you'll need your paint code. Open your driver's door and look at the center pillar (the door jamb) for a black ID sticker. You are looking for a two-digit code like "NW" or "EB." If it's not there, check the firewall under the hood. Keep in mind that Hyundai clear coats can be a bit soft, so they tend to show "car wash love marks" (swirls) more easily than others.
Driveway Repair Tip
Because so many Verna colors-like Moonlight Blue or Ice Wine Pearl-rely on heavy metallic and pearl flakes, your best friend is the "Shake and Wait" method. Before you touch that chip, shake your paint bottle for a full two minutes (play a song, it helps) to wake up those heavy metallic flakes that settle at the bottom.
When applying, patience is your secret weapon. Instead of trying to fill a deep chip with one big glob, apply two or three very thin "whisper layers." Let each layer dry for about 15 minutes. This prevents the paint from shrinking as it dries and ensures those beautiful pearls sit flat and sparkly, just like the factory intended.
