Ferrari Bianco Beta (222) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This is the definitive white of the 1980s wedge era. While Rosso Corsa grabbed the headlines, this color defined the sophisticated, high-contrast look of the Testarossa and the 328. It is a bright, clinical white that lacks the creamy undertones of earlier vintage shades, giving your car a sharp, modernistic silhouette that pops against black trim and rubber. Since your Ferrari has likely been on the road for several decades, keep in mind that original paint can develop a slight amber tint over time. A fresh touch-up may appear brighter than the surrounding panels, so focusing on small, precise repairs is the best way to maintain that integrated look.

Technical Details

This is a solid, opaque finish, which makes it much more forgiving than the complex metallics or pearls of the modern era. You do not have to worry about metallic flakes settling unevenly or "mottling" under the light. The challenge with a solid white like this is purity. Because there is no flake to hide imperfections, any dust or lint trapped in the wet paint will stand out like a thumbprint on a window. Since you are likely working in your Garage or a patch of Shade, ensure the area is as still as possible to prevent debris from landing on the surface during the Drying time.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Ferrari Bianco Beta (check for code 222), you need to shake the container for at least sixty seconds to ensure the white pigments are fully homogenized. You can usually find your paint code sticker on the underside of the engine deck lid or tucked under the front trunk lid. Always Test the color on the included card to check the match against your specific car's current state of aging. When applying, Keep the container moving to avoid heavy buildup and ensure the Flow from the Nozzle or Brush remains thin and manageable. Multiple light layers are always better than one thick coat that might sag or run.
