2021 Bentley Touch Up Paint (3 OEM Colors)

The 2021 Bentley Vibe

Welcome to 2021-the year the world finally stepped back outside and decided it wanted to look expensive while doing it. Bentley was busy churning out the Continental GT and the Bentayga to a crowd that had spent a year staring at walls, and they wanted finishes that popped. We've locked in the heavy hitters from this era: the brooding, metallic depths of Anthracite, the shimmering pearl of Blue Crystal, and the surgically sharp Ice. These weren't just colors; they were statements of intent. If you're driving one of these, you aren't just getting from A to B; you're curated.

Paint Health Check

Now, let's talk reality. We're deep in the Thin Paint Era. Bentley might still have craftsmen in Crewe hand-finishing these beauties, but the factory robots have the final say on the volume. They're precise, sure, but they're stingy. 2021 paint is a high-solid clear coat system designed for "Robot Efficiency"-which is a fancy way of saying it's thin and brittle. Those shimmering layers look like liquid glass, but they lack the "meat" of the old-school finishes. One stray pebble on the motorway and you've got a crater that goes straight to the primer. Because the clear is so hard, it doesn't "give"-it chips.

Restoration Tip

When you're fixing a chip on a 2021 finish, throw your "one-and-done" mentality out the window. This isn't a 1970s lacquer job where you can just dump a puddle of paint in a hole. Because the factory coats are so microscopic, you must build your layers slowly; don't blob it. If you put too much down at once, you'll get a "lens effect" where the repair sits higher than the surrounding clear, making it stick out like a sore thumb. Apply a thin layer, let it flash off, and repeat. You're looking to match the robot's precision with your own patience.
