1994 Ferrari Touch Up Paint (31 OEM Colors)

The 1994 Ferrari Vibe

Welcome to 1994-the year the F355 arrived to save us from the boxy 80s and the 512 TR was still the meanest thing in the valet line. Back then, if you weren't driving something that looked like it belonged in a Sega arcade game, you weren't trying. While the factory in Maranello was pumping out masterpieces, our database has narrowed its focus to the true survivors of the era. We're talking about the shades that actually made it through the decades without looking like a sunburned tourist: the timeless Argento Metallic, a rich Red Metallic, and that surgical White. These weren't just colors; they were a statement that you had arrived, likely at high speed.

Paint Health Check

We are firmly in the "Peeling Era" now, kid. By 1994, Ferrari had fully embraced the basecoat-clearcoat system, and while it gave the cars a depth that'd make you weep, it came with a shelf life. The clear coat on these mid-90s stallions is notorious for "delamination"-that's a fancy painter's term for the clear lifting off the color like a cheap window tint. If your 456 GT has spent too much time baking in the sun, that clear coat is probably brittle enough to shatter. The legend might be bulletproof, but that factory clear is likely looking for any excuse to check out and leave the basecoat unprotected.

Restoration Tip

Here's the deal: you need to seal every single stone chip the second you see it. On a 1994 finish, a chip isn't just an eyesore; it's an entry point for moisture to get between the layers. Once air gets under that clear coat, it starts to "zipper"-and once it starts peeling, there's no stopping it short of a five-figure respray. Clean the area, dab your color, and get that clear coat on top immediately to lock it down. Think of it as a tactical seal to keep the rest of the car's skin from jumping ship.
