2015 Bentley Touch Up Paint (2 OEM Colors)

The 2015 Bentley Vibe

The year was 2015. While everyone was busy upgrading their smartphones, the crew at Crewe was perfecting the art of the "rolling vault." Whether it was the Continental GT or the Flying Spur, a 2015 Bentley wasn't just a car; it was a statement that you'd arrived-and you brought a W12 engine with you. Our database for this year focuses on the survivors that truly define that peak-luxury era, like the brooding, executive Anthracite and the deep, shimmering Blue Crystal. These weren't just colors; they were liquid status symbols designed to look three feet deep under the lights of Mayfair or Beverly Hills.

Paint Health Check

Here's the reality from behind the spray gun: by 2015, we were deep into the Thin Paint Era. Back in the day, Bentley might have buried a car in enough lacquer to withstand a small sandstorm, but by 2015, "Robot Efficiency" had taken over. The factory robots became so precise they could lay down a finish that looks like a mirror but is actually thinner than a high-end business card. The gloss is undeniable, but the protection is lean. If you've been following a gravel truck on the M1, those stone chips aren't just surface scratches-they're likely straight through to the primer because there just isn't much "meat" on the bone to buff out.

Restoration Tip

When you're touching up a 2015 finish, you have to respect the robot. Because the factory clear coat is so thin, you can't just slap on a heavy glob of paint and hope for the best. Build your layers slowly. Apply a thin coat, let it flash off, and repeat. If you "blob" it, you'll end up with a visible mound that's nearly impossible to level without sanding through the surrounding factory clear. Patience is your best friend here; you're trying to mimic a high-precision machine, not a house painter.
