Suzuki Celerio Paint Info
### The Color Breakdown
Suzuki kept things sensible and stylish with the Celerio, offering a tight palette of 6 recorded colors. Whether you're rocking the fiery Red, the understated Medium Gray, or the deep Majestic Blue Metallic, these colors were designed to make this city car punch above its weight class. It's a "greatest hits" collection of automotive finishes-functional, classic, and thankfully, very DIY-friendly for those of us working in a sunny driveway.
What to Watch For
The Celerio is a champ in traffic, but its factory paint is known for being a bit on the "delicate" side. Because the clear coat is quite soft, you'll likely notice stone chips popping up on the hood and front bumper like uninvited party guests. If you have a white model, keep a close eye on the door edges; Suzuki's thin application means the paint can sometimes flake if it gets a good knock.
To find your specific color match, you'll need to play detective for a moment. Open your passenger door and check the center pillar (B-pillar) for a silver VIN sticker. If it's not there, pop the hood and look at the firewall (the metal wall behind the engine). You're looking for a 3-digit code like "ZMW" or "ZCC"-that's your golden ticket to the right bottle of paint.
Driveway Repair Tip
Since colors like Radiant Silver Metallic and Majestic Blue are packed with tiny metallic flakes, they have a habit of settling at the bottom of the bottle. Give your touch-up pen or bottle a vigorous shake for a full 60 seconds-longer than you think you need-to wake up those sparkles. When you go to fill a chip, don't try to fill the whole crater in one go. Dabbing on two or three thin layers (waiting 15 minutes between them) will give you a much smoother result than one giant, gloopy mountain of paint.
