2021 Ferrari Touch Up Paint (15 OEM Colors)

The 2021 Ferrari Vibe

By 2021, Maranello was playing a high-stakes game of "sophisticated speed." You had the SF90 Stradale pushing the limits of physics and the Roma trying to look like a vintage film star. Our database tracks 15 of the era's heavy hitters, and frankly, it's a lot to keep track of. Whether you were rocking the deep, regal Blue Tour De France Metallic or the retina-searing Rosso Scuderia, 2021 was a year of choice. It was the "Tailor Made" era where you could get your Ferrari in any flavor of Gray Metallic or Argento known to man, provided you had the patience for the waiting list.

Paint Health Check

Welcome to the Thin Paint Era. Back in the day, a painter could bury a mistake under five mils of lacquer, but 2021 was the peak of "Robot Efficiency." These cars are sprayed by mechanical arms so precise they can calculate the exact micron of paint needed to cover a fender without wasting a drop. The result? A finish that looks like liquid glass but has the structural integrity of a soap bubble. If you look closely at a 2021 factory finish, you'll likely spot "orange peel"-that wavy texture where the thin clear coat didn't quite level out. Worse yet, because these coats are so lean, a single pebble on the autostrada becomes a crater. There's just no "meat" on the bone for deep correction.

Restoration Tip

When you're touching up a 2021 finish, you have to fight the urge to be a hero. Build your layers slowly; don't blob it. Modern factory clears are incredibly hard but very thin, meaning a giant glob of touch-up paint won't just look bad-it won't bond properly with the shallow surrounding area. Apply the color in thin, patient passes, letting it flash off until it's just below the surface of the clear. If you try to fill a rock chip in one shot, you'll end up with a "volcano" that's a nightmare to level. Take your time, or the robots win.
