Kia EV6 Paint Info
The Color Breakdown
Kia really went for it with the EV6, giving us a massive palette of 18 colors. While they did lean into the "shades of grey" trend with Wolf Gray Metallic and Graphite Gray, they also threw in some absolute showstoppers like Urban Yellow, Deep Forest Green, and the stunning Yacht Blue Matt. Whether you're driving the sophisticated Aurora Black Pearl or the punchy Runaway Red Pearl, your car has a lot of personality-and that means a lot of sparkles to keep track of.
What to Watch For
The EV6 is a masterpiece of aerodynamics, but that sleek, sloping hood is basically a magnet for road pebbles. Owners have noted that the clear coat on these cars can be a bit on the "soft" side, meaning it's prone to small stone chips and superficial scratches. You might also notice tiny nicks near the door corners or the rear spoiler where the paint is a little more delicate. To find your exact match, open your driver's door and look at the sticker on the door jamb. You're looking for a 2 or 3-digit code (like ABP for Aurora Black or CR5 for Runaway Red).
Driveway Repair Tip
Since so many Kia colors-like Snow White Tricoat or Glacial White-use pearls and metallic flakes, your biggest secret weapon is the "The Great Shake." Shake your touch-up bottle or pen for at least 60 seconds before you start; those heavy metallic flakes like to settle at the bottom, and you need them floating to get that factory glow. If you're working on a matte finish like Ivory Silver Matt, remember that less is more. For standard gloss colors, apply the paint in thin, light "dots" rather than one big blob. It requires a bit of patience, but building up the color slowly is the best way to keep that repair looking smooth and flush with the rest of your beautiful EV.
