| I am thinking of touching up a few spots on my '93 Light driftwood metallic wagon, and I was curious if using this particular dupli color paint would do the trick. Light Driftwood Metallic | |

| Works for Paint code: 33 WA5322
so, yes, it will match.
The paint code is on the inside of the tailgate (right side on the "D" pillar) Look for the "CC" code on the very bottom of the label. SHOULD be 5322. | |

| I know LDM is a 94 to 96 color. Not sure if it is a 93 color, it's probably close but not sure if it's the exact color. I would guess it is not.

| There's the answer! I wasn't sure, but I knew the interior colors are different.

| With automotive paint you won't really know until you open the container and compare it to the paint on the car. | |

| You won't really know until you have sprayed and dryed a test panel and turn against the area you want to repair to see if the metallic matches in one of these positions in its laydown pattern. If you are repairing a vertical area you need to hold test panel to that vertical panel. If repairing an horizontal area then hold the test panel to the horizontal area, you can match one and NOT the other. If not spraying, such as using a touchup brush for a scratch, then you will just need to brush a touch up panel edge to see if it matches well enough to suit you. Clearcoat can also darken a color slightly depending on what clear you use. | |
