Finding the exact paint color code for your 2019 Ram ProMaster is essential whether you need to fix a small rock chip, touch up a scratch from the job site, or repaint an entire panel. Matching the factory finish requires using the correct paint code, not just a generic name like "white" or "silver."

Below is your comprehensive guide to the 2019 Ram ProMaster factory paint colors, where to locate your paint code, and the best ways to apply touch-up paint for professional-looking results.

Where to find your paint code

To ensure a perfect match, you need to find the Service Parts Identification (SPID) or Vehicle Certification label on your ProMaster. For the 2019 Ram ProMaster, this is typically located in one of two places:

1. The Driver’s Side Door Jamb (B-Pillar): Open the driver's door and look at the frame where the door latches. There should be a manufacturer sticker containing the VIN, tire pressure data, and the paint code. Look for "PNT:" followed by the three-character code (like "PNT: PW7").
2. Under the Hood / Firewall: On some commercial configurations, the paint code may be stamped on a metal plate or printed on a sticker affixed to the firewall or inner fender well.

If your sticker is faded, damaged, or missing, simply write down your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and call your local Ram dealership's parts department. They can run the VIN and give you the exact factory paint code.

Best touch-up paint sources

Once you have your paint code, you have several reliable options for purchasing high-quality touch-up paint:

• AutomotiveTouchup: Known for highly accurate custom-mixed paints available in pens, brush bottles, aerosol cans, and ready-to-spray pints/quarts. Ideal for larger repairs or exact matching.
• Dupli-Color: A highly accessible option available at most local auto parts stores. They offer the "Perfect Match" line in pens and aerosols, which is great for common colors like Bright White (PW7).
• Tcoat (Custom-Mix): Excellent for custom-mixed batches, especially if you need paint that accommodates slight UV fading on older fleet vehicles.
• Ram Dealership (Mopar): Buying an official Mopar touch-up pen from the dealer guarantees an exact factory match, though sizes are typically limited to small pens or half-ounce bottles.

How to use touch-up paint

Achieving a seamless repair requires patience and proper preparation. Follow these steps for the best results:

1. Clean: Thoroughly wash the damaged area with soap and water. Once dry, use a wax and grease remover (or rubbing alcohol) to eliminate any residues that could prevent adhesion.
2. Primer: If the scratch or chip goes all the way down to bare metal or plastic, apply a thin layer of automotive primer. Let it dry completely before moving to the next step.
3. Base Coat: Apply the color-matched base coat in thin, light layers. Use a fine-tipped brush or a toothpick for tiny rock chips to avoid overfilling. Allow 15-20 minutes of drying time between each coat until the color is solid.
4. Clear Coat: Once the base coat is fully dry (wait at least an hour), apply the clear coat. The clear coat protects the paint and provides the glossy finish. Apply 2-3 thin layers, letting it dry between coats. After a few days of curing, you can lightly polish the area to blend it with the surrounding paint.

Color matching tips for pearls and tri-coats

Colors like Deep Cherry Red Crystal Pearlcoat (PRP) contain specialized metallic flakes and pearl layers that reflect light differently depending on the angle.

• Tri-Coat Complexity: If your color is a tri-coat, it requires a specialized process: a base color coat, a mid-coat (translucent pearl), and a top clear coat. You must apply these in the correct sequence.
• Practice First: Always test your paint match and practice your application technique on a glossy piece of scrap metal or heavy cardboard before applying it to your van.
• Blending: For metallic and pearl paints, the direction you spray or brush the paint can affect how the metallic flakes lay. Light, dusting coats work best for aerosols to prevent the flakes from pooling.

If the damage to your 2019 Ram ProMaster is beyond the scope of a simple touch-up pen or aerosol can, don't risk a botched DIY repair on your work vehicle.
