Infiniti QX70 Touch Up Paint (9 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Infiniti leaned into their luxury-performance identity with the QX70, offering a curated palette of 9 colors. They didn't just give us "Black" and "White"-they gave us the brooding Black Obsidian, the sophisticated Olive Green Metallic, and the shimmering White Pearl Tricoat. It's a lineup that says, "I have a 325-horsepower engine, but I also have a favorite vineyard." Whether you're rocking the Dark Red Pearl or the classic Silver Metallic, these colors were designed to catch the light on those curvy body panels.

What to Watch For

Before you start, we need to talk about Infiniti's "Scratch Shield" clear coat. This was a "self-healing" paint designed to flow back into light scratches under the sun's heat. In the DIY world, this means the paint can feel a little softer or "gummier" than a standard domestic truck. You might notice the clear coat starting to get tired-or even peeling-near the roof rails or the tops of the door handles.

To find your specific match, open the driver's door. Look for the silver or black manufacturer's VIN plate on the center pillar (the door jamb). Near the bottom of that sticker, look for a three-character code (like KH3 for black or QAA for pearl white) next to the word "COLOR."

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many QX70 colors are pearls or metallics (especially that Blue Pearl), the "The Paint Whisperer" secret is all in the wrist. Those tiny metallic flakes like to settle at the bottom of your touch-up bottle while it sits in your mailbox. Shake that bottle for a full 60 seconds-longer than you think you need to-to wake up the sparkles. When applying, think "thin and patient." If you have a deep chip, don't try to fill the whole canyon with one giant drop. Apply a thin layer, let it dry for 15 minutes, and come back for a second pass. It builds the color much better and keeps that "self-healing" look smooth.
