Ford KY. Truck Touch Up Paint (66 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Ford's Kentucky Truck plant didn't just build workhorses; they ran a full-blown rainbow through the assembly line. We've recorded a staggering 66 colors for these rigs. They really went for it back in the day-you could get your truck in everything from the utilitarian School Bus Yellow to the surprisingly fancy Wild Strawberry Pearl Metallic or the earthy Pawnee Tan. Whether you're driving a rolling forest (Jewel Green Metallic) or a sunset (Electric Currant Red Metallic), Ford made sure your truck had as much personality as it had towing capacity.

What to Watch For

Before you start dabbing, we need to find your "birth certificate." Open the driver's side door and look at the jamb for a white sticker. You're looking for the letters EXT PNT; the two characters next to it are your golden ticket. Now, a quick reality check: these trucks are legendary, but their paint likes to go on vacation. Keep a close eye on the roof seams and those little "rain gutter" trenches above the doors. The paint there tends to get tired and might start peeling or looking a bit chalky. If you see a loose edge, don't pick at it! Just clean the area gently so your new paint has a fresh surface to grab onto.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many of these Ford colors are heavy on the metallics and pearls-looking at you, Deep Sienna Pearl-your biggest job happens before you even open the bottle. Shake that touch-up pen or jar for a full 60 seconds. You need to "wake up" those tiny metallic flakes that have settled at the bottom; otherwise, your repair will look like a flat brown smudge instead of a shimmering masterpiece. When you apply it, think "less is more." Use a tiny dab to fill the center of the chip and let it spread itself out. Two thin coats will always look better than one giant, gloopy mountain of paint.
