Suzuki Reno Touch Up Paint (7 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

The Suzuki Reno might have been a short-lived compact, but it didn't shy away from a bold wardrobe. Suzuki offered a tight edit of 7 colors that ranged from the sensible to the "look at me." You've got the essentials like Absolute White and Titanium Silver Metallic, but they really leaned into the drama with Tuxedo Black Pearl Metallic and the surprisingly punchy Sunburst Metallic. Whether you're driving the sophisticated Fusion Red Metallic or the unapologetic Bright Red, this car was designed to be noticed in a parking lot.

What to Watch For

Now, here is the honest truth: the Reno has a bit of a "delicate" complexion. Like a tourist on their first day in the sun, these cars are prone to clear coat "sunburn," especially on the roof and hood. If you see white, flaky patches, that's just the top layer giving up the ghost. Before you start dabbing on paint, you need to find your "recipe." Pop the hood and look for a small metal plate on the firewall (the wall behind the engine) or check the driver's side door jamb. You're looking for a three-character code-something like "92U" or "70U"-to make sure you're getting the right flavor of red or silver.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since most Reno colors-like Cobalt Blue Metallic-are packed with those tiny "sparkles" (metallic or pearl flakes), you need to be the DJ before you're the artist. Those flakes are heavy and love to sink to the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or bottle for at least two full minutes-set a timer on your phone! If you don't wake up those flakes, your repair will look like a flat, dark smudge. When you apply it, think "dots, not streaks." Build the color up in tiny, thin layers until it's level with the surrounding paint. Patience is your best tool here.
