1994 Infiniti Touch Up Paint (20 OEM Colors)

The 1994 Infiniti Vibe

1994 was the year Infiniti really started leaning into its "stealth wealth" identity. While the flagship Q45 was terrorizing the left lane, the J30 was turning heads with its rounded "jellybean" curves that looked like they were carved out of a single piece of soap. In our database, we've focused on the survivors of this era, specifically the heavy hitter: Black Obsidian. In the mid-90s, a deep black finish was the only way to fly if you wanted that executive, "don't-look-at-me-but-actually-do" aesthetic.

Paint Health Check

Welcome to The Peeling Era. Back in '94, factory lines were still perfecting the handshake between the color coat and the clear layer. This means your Infiniti is at high risk for "Delamination"-a fancy painter's term for the clear coat losing its grip and flaking off in sheets like a bad sunburn. If your roof or trunk looks like it's "ghosting" or has white, chalky patches that feel like paper edges, the bond has failed. Once the clear lifts, the basecoat underneath is exposed to the elements and will disappear faster than a 90s tech stock.

Restoration Tip

The secret to keeping a '94 survivor on the road is surgical intervention. You have to seal chips immediately before the clear lifts. If you spot a tiny rock chip, don't wait for the weekend. Moisture and air are the enemies here; they crawl under the clear coat at the edge of the chip and start the delamination process. Use a high-quality touch-up to bridge that gap and "glue" the edge of the clear coat back down to the base. It's not just about the color; it's about stopping the peel before it claims the whole hood.
