2002 Fiat Touch Up Paint (4 OEM Colors)

The 2002 Fiat Vibe

Welcome to the year of the bubbly Punto and the "you-either-love-it-or-you're-wrong" Multipla. While the rest of the world was drowning in a sea of boring silver, Fiat was still leaning into that Italian flair. We've focused our collection on the true survivors of the era-those iconic shades that actually had some soul. Whether you're trying to save a Rosso Speed Punto that's seen better days or keeping the deep, moody Red Rosso Scilla alive on a Stilo, these colors were meant to turn heads, not just blend into a parking lot. If you're rocking Arancio Calypso Metallic or Bleu Micalizzato, you're not just driving a car; you're piloting a time machine from the peak of the early-2000s hatchback craze.

Paint Health Check

Since we're deep in the "Peeling Era," your biggest enemy isn't rust-it's delamination. By 2002, the factory was using a two-stage system (color covered by a clear coat), but the bond between the two wasn't always a lifelong marriage. If your Fiat has spent its life under the Mediterranean sun (or just a particularly bright streetlamp), you've likely seen the "clear coat sneeze." It starts as a tiny white bubble or a chip, and before you know it, the clear is lifting off in sheets like a bad sunburn. The reds, specifically Rosso Speed and Rosso Scilla, are notorious for this-once that clear starts to cloud or flake, the pigment underneath is defenseless against the elements.

Restoration Tip

If you catch a rock chip, seal it yesterday. In this era, a chip isn't just a cosmetic flaw; it's an entry point for moisture to get under the clear coat and start the lifting process. If you're already seeing some peeling edges, don't just spray over them. You need to gently feather those edges down with fine-grit sandpaper so the new paint has a smooth "ramp" to sit on. If you leave a hard edge on the old clear coat, the new layer will just sit on top like a scab and eventually pop off. Take your time with light, even coats-don't try to bury the problem in one heavy pass, or you'll just end up with a mess that peels twice as fast.
