1991 Isuzu Touch Up Paint (31 OEM Colors)

The 1991 Isuzu Vibe

Welcome to 1991, the year Joe Isuzu was lying through his teeth about the 0-60 times and the Impulse was rocking "Handling by Lotus" badges like a budget supercar. It was a wild time for the brand-the Rodeo was the new king of the suburban jungle, and the Amigo was the ultimate "I'm going to the beach and never coming back" accessory. With 43 colors in our database, it's clear Isuzu wasn't playing it safe. They were spraying everything from the forest-ready Ivy Green Pearl to the "did they really do that?" Orchid Pink Metallic. If you're driving a 1991 Trooper or Pickup today, you aren't just driving a truck; you're piloting a boxy piece of Japanese-engineered nostalgia.

Paint Health Check

Since we're firmly in The Peeling Era (1985-2005), your Isuzu is likely fighting a losing battle with its own skin. By 1991, Isuzu had fully embraced the basecoat/clearcoat system, especially for those flashy metallics like Seychelles Blue and Garnet Pearl. The problem? Early 90s clear coats weren't exactly UV-bulletproof. If your rig spent its life outside, that clear coat is probably "ghosting"-turning white and flaking off in sheets like a bad sunburn. Once the clear lifts, the base coat underneath is as vulnerable as a convert in a lion's den. If you see those white, flaky edges around the hood or the roof of your Stylus, the clock is ticking before the metal starts to see daylight.

Restoration Tip

When you're dealing with 1991 delamination, the "blob and hope" method won't cut it. To stop the clear coat from traveling, you need to seal chips and scratches the second they appear. If you've got a small area where the clear is starting to lift, use a fine-grit abrasive to very gently feather those brittle edges back until you hit "solid" paint. Don't go through to the primer! Once you've stabilized the edge, apply your color and clear to seal the wound. This prevents moisture from getting under the remaining clear and "lifting" the rest of the panel. Catch it early, or you'll be looking at a full respray of that Bahamas Green before the next oil change.
