2022 Honda Touch Up Paint (24 OEM Colors)

The 2022 Honda Vibe

Welcome to 2022-the year the 11th-gen Civic took over the carpool lane and the CR-V decided it wanted to look "rugged." Honda really leaned into the variety this year, and our database reflects it with a massive 24-color spread. It was the era of the "non-metallic" look that wasn't actually flat, like the fan-favorite Sonic Gray, and high-energy hitters like Boost Blue Pearl. Whether you were hauling the family in an Odyssey or pretending to be a weekend warrior in a Ridgeline, the 2022 palette was all about sophisticated depth and high-glam pearls like Midnight Amethyst Metallic.

Paint Health Check

We are deep in the Thin Paint Era. Back in the day, we used enough lacquer to stop a bullet, but by 2022, "Robot Efficiency" became the law of the land. The factory clear coat on your Accord or Pilot is applied with microscopic precision, which is great for the bottom line but lousy for highway debris. This paint is notoriously "soft," meaning one stray pebble on the interstate can leave a crater in your Meteorite Gray hood. If you're seeing tiny white pockmarks on the front fascia, it's not a defect; it's just the reality of modern, ultra-thin factory enamel getting sandblasted by the real world.

Restoration Tip

When you're fixing chips on these 2022 beauties, you have to play by the robot's rules: build layers slowly; don't blob it. Because the factory finish is so thin, a big, thick drop of touch-up paint will stand out like a sore thumb. For those high-metallic or pearl finishes like Blazing Orange Pearl, apply your color in two or three "whisper-thin" coats, letting it dry in between. This prevents the metallic flakes from bunching up and ensures your repair sits flush with that lean, mean factory profile.
