Mercedes-Benz CLA-Coupe Touch Up Paint (43 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Mercedes-Benz didn't exactly play it safe with the CLA-Coupe, recording a staggering 43 different colors over its run. They really went for it, offering everything from the high-voltage Solar Yellow and Hyper Blue to the more "boardroom chic" Rose Gold Metallic. Whether your car is a classic Polar White or the moody Cosmos Black, it's clear the designers wanted these cars to pop under city lights.

What to Watch For

While the CLA is a head-turner, it has a few sensitive spots. Keep a close eye on the glossy black panel between your windshield and the sunroof; the clear coat there has a reputation for wanting to "peel out" earlier than the rest of the car if it spends too much time baking in the sun. The factory paint can also be a bit soft, making it a magnet for hood chips. To get started on your repair, you'll find your three-digit color code hiding on a sticker inside the driver's side door jamb.

Driveway Repair Tip

Many CLA colors, like Digital White or Mountain Gray, are packed with metallic and pearl flakes that love to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or brush for a full two minutes-long after you think you're done-to wake up those sparkles. When you're ready to apply, don't try to fill a deep chip in one "blob." Instead, apply a thin layer, let it dry for 20 minutes, and then come back for a second pass. For those tricky matte "Magno" finishes, matching the texture requires patience, so use the tiniest amount of paint possible to keep the repair level with the rest of the panel.
