Honda Ridgeline Touch Up Paint (33 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

The Honda Ridgeline has lived a colorful life, sporting a massive wardrobe of 33 recorded colors since it first hit the scene. Honda really "went for it" with this palette, moving from the rugged, outdoorsy Amazon Green Metallic to the celestial-inspired Meteor Blast Metallic. If you're looking at a white one, you're likely holding Taffeta White or the more complex White Diamond Pearl Tricoat. Whether you're driving a "Black Edition" or a "Radiant Red" weekend warrior, this truck was designed to stand out in the suburban wild.

What to Watch For

Here's the honest truth: Honda paint is notoriously "soft," which means it's great at looking shiny but sensitive to the elements. On older Ridgelines, keep a close eye on the roof and the center of the hood; the clear coat there tends to get a "sunburn" (turning chalky or peeling) if it's spent too many years parked in the driveway. You might also notice the paint starting to bubble or chip around the tailgate handle or the edges of the bed. To find your exact match, open the driver's door and look at the jamb. There's a white or silver sticker there-your code is usually a mix of letters and numbers (like NH-731P) sitting right near the barcode.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many Ridgeline colors-especially favorites like Nighthawk Black Pearl-are packed with metallic flakes and pearls, they **require patience** to get right. Those tiny sparkles love to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or bottle for at least two full minutes-long enough for your arm to get bored, then give it thirty seconds more. When you're filling a chip, think "less is more." Use a tiny dab to fill the center and let it level itself out. If you're dealing with a pearl finish, remember that building up three paper-thin layers is always better than one giant, goopy blob that won't dry.
