Infiniti G25 Touch Up Paint (8 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

The Infiniti G25 may have been the "entry-level" luxury sedan, but the paint department didn't get the memo-they gave us 8 sophisticated shades to play with. You've likely got one of the heavy hitters like Black Obsidian, the sparkling White Pearl Tricoat, or one of the many "shades of business casual" like Dark Gray Pearl. It's a refined palette that says, "I have a 401k, but I also enjoy a spirited highway on-ramp."

What to Watch For

Before you start dabbing, we need to find your "Birth Certificate"-the paint code. On the G25, pop the driver's door and look at the jamb for a silver or white sticker; you're looking for a 3-digit code (like KH3 or QAA) near the bottom. Now, a word of honesty: Infiniti paint from this era is famously "soft." This means it looks gorgeous but picks up rock chips on the hood if you so much as look at a gravel truck. You might also notice the clear coat getting a little thin or "cloudy" on the roof or trunk-don't panic, it just means the car has lived a full life in the sun and is ready for some TLC.

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're working with one of those deep pearls or metallics, here is the golden rule: Shake that bottle like it owes you money. Those tiny metallic flakes love to settle at the bottom, and if you don't mix them for at least a full minute, your repair will look dull. When applying, think "less is more." Use the tip of the brush or pen to place a tiny dot of paint inside the chip rather than painting over it. Two thin, patient layers are always better than one big, gloopy "mountain" of paint that takes three days to dry!
