Where to find Jaguar color code

How to Find Your Jaguar's Color Code

Jaguar paint color codes are usually on the drivers door jamb. On older Jaguar models, the color code can be ANYWHERE! Under the hood, in the trunk. Typical format: 1957/HGZ, which corresponds to Jaguar Racing Green Pearl. Some Jaguars will have the 1957 code but most will only show the HGZ code. Same color across models may have different names: Racing Clearcoat, Green Performance Clearcoat, etc. It's the same paint!

Your Paint Color Profile

Ammonite Grey Metallic

The Look

This grey defines the modern Jaguar era. It turned the F-Pace and F-Type into stealthy, sophisticated machines that look fast even when parked in your driveway. It is a cool-toned charcoal that hides road grime better than almost any other color in the catalog. It manages to be understated while still showing off the aggressive body lines that Jaguar is known for. If you drive an F-Type in this shade, you know it highlights the rear haunches without the constant cleaning required by a black car. Since your Jaguar has been on the road for a few seasons, this color remains a practical choice for maintaining that high-end appearance.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish. It relies on tiny flakes to catch the light and give the car its shape. Because your XE or XF has faced road wear, the original finish might be a shade lighter than a fresh application. The biggest challenge with metallics is mottling. If the flakes do not settle in a uniform layer, you get dark shadows or stripes in the finish. This happens when the paint is applied too thick or the container is not mixed well enough to distribute the metal particles.

Best Practices

Find your paint code on the driver side door pillar or under the hood on the radiator support. Before you spray or dab Jaguar Ammonite Grey Metallic (check for code 1AB/LKH/873), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. The metallic particles in this paint are heavy and settle at the bottom of the container. If you skip the shaking, the color will look dull and lose its factory shimmer. Test the color on the included card to check that the flake density looks right. Keep the container moving to ensure the finish remains even. Work in a Garage or a spot with plenty of Shade to prevent the paint from drying too fast. Give each layer enough drying time so the metal flakes can set before you apply the next one.

Will absolutely order from this company again.

After ordering touch-up paint from Lexus I was still waiting for it a month later. If they'd told me upfront it would take that long I wouldn't have ordered in the first place. Paint Scratch was recommended by a friend who restores cars. Easy ordering, fair price and fast shipping. The color match is great especially considering my car is a 2012. Will absolutely order from this company again. Reason I chose this business: Lexus collision repair and a local collision repair. Will use paint less dent removal and touch up chipped paint myself. Reason I chose this product: Spouse sideswiped passenger side of car while backing out of garage. Mostly plastic transfer from his wheel well trim but pressure creased and cracked the paint causing a bare strip 1/8 wide x 4” long below door handle. Scratches on door handle and a few small chips on both doors.

Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans

Used Paint Scratch metallic custom mixed spray cans paint on a hood panel with excellent coverage and texture over the surface. Metallic paint can be very unforgiving out of a spray can, sputtering pigmentation dots on the panel being sprayed and thus ruining the paint job. No such issues with Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint spray cans. Paint sprayed strong and evenly till the last drop of paint in the can. Shipping time was faster than expected. Reason I chose this business: Having tried other brands of custom mixed metallic paint with terrible results, sputtering pigmentation tint dots from the spray nozzle in spite of vigorously shaking of can prior to application and loss of propellant rendering the lower fifth of the can's paint useless, Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint sprays out beautifully and strong all the way to the last gram of paint in the can. Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans for automotive restoration. Thank you Paint Scratch.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find my vehicle’s paint code?

Your paint code is usually found in the driver’s door jamb, trunk, or under the hood. See our Jaguar Paint Code Guide for detailed instructions.

Will this paint match my car?

Yes. If your Jaguar's color code is '1AB/LKH/873', your paint is custom-mixed to factory specs and backed by our Color Match Guarantee. If the paint does not match your Jaguar, we will send you a replacement or refund.

Do I need primer and clearcoat?

While primer is recommended on bare metal or plastic, clearcoat is essential: it protects the basecoat and restores factory gloss.

How long does shipping take?

Orders are mixed fresh and ship within 3–5 business days. Delivery takes 2–14 days depending on location.

Which touch up product should I choose?

 It depends on the size of the damage:

  • Paint Pen (½ oz) – Best for very small chips and fine scratches.
  • Brush Bottle (2 oz) – Great for medium chips or scratches up to the size of a quarter.
  • Spray Can – Ideal for larger areas and panels.
  • Professional Sizes (Pint, Quart, Gallon) – Designed for full panel and vehicle resprays using spray equipment.

Not sure? If it’s just rock chips or small scratches, start with a Paint Pen.

Can I return my order?

Yes! If there’s a color match issue, we’ll replace the product or give you your money back. You also can return unopened, non-custom accessories for a full refund.

How long will the paint last in storage?

Paint pens and bottles last about a year if stored cool and dry. Spray cans can last several years if the nozzle is cleaned.
