2015 Peterbilt Touch Up Paint (3 OEM Colors)

The 2015 Peterbilt Vibe

By 2015, the Peterbilt lineup-from the classic long-nose 389 to the aerodynamic 579-was the undisputed king of the interstate. This was the year of the professional, polished look. We've focused our 2015 capsule on the absolute survivors: Medium Gray, Medium Red, and Sovereign Blue. These weren't just colors; they were the uniform of the high-mileage elite. Back then, a Sovereign Blue sleeper cab shimmering under the lights of a truck stop was the peak of "large car" style.

Paint Health Check

Welcome to the Thin Paint Era. By 2015, the bean counters had perfected "Robot Efficiency." Those robotic spray arms were programmed to apply the absolute bare minimum of clear coat-just enough to pass inspection and shine for the first few thousand miles. If your rig has been working for a living, you're likely seeing "road rash" on the hood and those tell-tale white bubbles where the aluminum panels are starting to oxidize under the thin factory shell. Because the robots were so stingy with the clear, a single stone chip can lead to a peeling disaster if you don't seal it up fast.

Restoration Tip

Since 2015 paint is notoriously thin, your best friend is patience. Our Catalyzed Spray Cans are designed to give you a chemical-resistant, factory-hard finish that the original robots would envy, but you have to respect the layers. Build your coverage slowly. If you try to fill a deep chip with one heavy "blob" of paint, it won't cure evenly and you'll end up with a soft spot. Instead, mist on thin, even passes and let the catalyst do its job. It takes a little longer, but it's the only way to get a repair that stands up to a high-pressure wash and the occasional diesel splash.
