Lincoln Ceramic White Effect Tricoat (F6) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This shade defined a brief era of American luxury for the Town Car and MKZ. It is a dense, porcelain-inspired white that offers more character than a standard work-truck finish. Your vehicle has spent years in the elements, so the original paint on the hood or roof may have shifted in tone compared to the fresh liquid in your hand. This color provides a deep glow that keeps these cruisers looking modern and well-maintained.

Technical Details

You are dealing with a pearl tricoat. The finish is built in three stages rather than one quick application. The depth comes from a semi-transparent middle layer that contains fine mica particles. This creates a challenge because the number of layers you apply determines the final shade. If you apply too much of the middle coat, the repair will look yellow or dark. If you apply too little, the patch will look flat and won't catch the light like the rest of the car.

Best Practices

Locate the identification sticker on your driver's side door jamb to confirm your information. Before you spray or dab Lincoln Ceramic White Effect Tricoat (check for code F6), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to mix the pearl particles. Work in a garage or the shade to prevent the paint from drying too fast on a hot surface. Test the color on the included card to find the exact number of coats required to match your car's aging finish. Keep the container moving at a steady flow to prevent the pearl from pooling into dark blotches, and allow plenty of drying time between each layer.
