Toyota Prius Prime Touch Up Paint (24 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Toyota really went for it with the Prius Prime. While we've recorded 25 colors in total, they've managed to balance the "earth-friendly" vibe with some seriously bold choices. You've got everything from the sleek Magnetic Gray Metallic and Cement Gray Metallic-perfect for that "stealth hybrid" look-to the punchy Mustard and Electric Storm Blue that scream "I've arrived (silently)." They even offer fancy multi-stage finishes like Wind Chill Pearl Tricoat and Bright Red Tricoat, proving that just because you're saving the planet doesn't mean you can't look like a million bucks while doing it.

What to Watch For

Before you grab your touch-up pen, open your driver's side door and look at the black sticker on the door jamb. You're looking for a three-digit code next to "C/TR" (Color/Trim)-that's your golden ticket to a perfect match. Now, the reality check: Toyota's modern eco-paints are great for the environment, but they tend to be a bit on the "soft" side. Keep an eye on the leading edge of your hood and the front bumper; these areas are rock-chip magnets. Also, if you're rocking one of the pearl whites like Blizzard Pearl, stay vigilant around the door handles and window trim, as those specific shades have a history of wanting to part ways with the metal if left exposed to too many chips.

Driveway Repair Tip

If your Prime is finished in one of those stunning "Tricoats" or "Pearls," don't be intimidated-it just requires a little extra patience. These kits usually come with two bottles: a base color and a "mid-coat" that provides the sparkle. The secret is in the shake; those tiny metallic flakes love to settle at the bottom, so shake your bottle for a full 60 seconds until you hear the mixing ball rattling like a maraca. When applying, think "thin and light." Two or three paper-thin layers will look infinitely better than one big, thick blob. If you're working on the hood, try to catch those chips early before they have a chance to grow!
