2023 Bentley Touch Up Paint (3 OEM Colors)

The 2023 Bentley Vibe

2023 was the year Bentley decided every car should have the presence of a private jet and the curb weight of a small cathedral. Whether it was the Continental GT, the Flying Spur, or the Bentayga, these cars were built for "quiet luxury"-even if the W12 engine under the hood was anything but quiet. In our database, we've focused on the heavy hitters that defined the look: the deep, brooding Anthracite, the shimmering Blue Crystal, and that clinical, sharp metallic known as Ice. It's a palette that screams "I have a standing reservation at the Savoy," but as any painter will tell you, looking that good requires a clear coat that's working overtime.

Paint Health Check

Welcome to the Thin Paint Era. Don't let the luxury price tag fool you; the robots in Crewe are masters of efficiency. While 2023 Bentley paint is incredibly hard and offers a mirror-like finish, it's applied with the precision of a laser-meaning it's thin. We're seeing "Robot Efficiency" at its peak: coats so lean that a stray pebble on the M1 feels like a personal attack on your primer. Because modern factory enamel is more brittle than the old-school stuff, stone chips don't just dent the surface; they tend to "star" or shatter the surrounding clear. Even on low-mileage survivors, you'll likely find factory sanding marks-what we call "pigtails"-if you look closely enough under the shop lights.

Restoration Tip

When you're touching up a 2023 masterpiece, remember: build layers slowly and don't blob it. Because the factory finish is so thin and flat, a giant glob of touch-up paint will stick out like a sore thumb. If you're filling a chip on a hood finished in Blue Crystal or Anthracite, use a steady hand to apply several paper-thin layers rather than one heavy one. You want to bring the level of the repair up to the surface gradually. This mimics that tight, factory-sprayed tension and prevents the "volcano effect" where the repair sits higher than the surrounding clear coat.
