How to Find Your 1986 Jaguar's Color Code

Jaguar paint color codes are usually on the drivers door jamb. On older Jaguar models, the color code can be ANYWHERE! Under the hood, in the trunk. Typical format: 1957/HGZ, which corresponds to Jaguar Racing Green Pearl. Some Jaguars will have the 1957 code but most will only show the HGZ code. Same color across models may have different names: Racing Clearcoat, Green Performance Clearcoat, etc. It's the same paint!

1986 Jaguar Background Info

### The 1986 Jaguar Vibe

In 1986, Jaguar was the undisputed king of "Executive Cool." Whether you were piloting a Series III XJ6 or the V12-powered XJS, you weren't just driving a car; you were wearing a tailored suit with a leaping cat on the hood. This was the era of sophisticated, nature-inspired metallics and deep jewel tones. Our database tracks 19 distinct shades for this year alone, proving that Jaguar didn't just give you a color; they gave you a mood. From the earthy Antelope Metallic and Silver Sand Metallic to the icy Arctic Blue Metallic and the regal Claret, the 1986 palette was designed to look expensive while idling outside a London club or a Wall Street firm.

Paint Health Check

Welcome to the "Peeling Era." By 1986, Jaguar had fully embraced the basecoat-and-clearcoat system to get those high-gloss metallic finishes like Rhodium Silver and Cobalt Blue to pop. The problem? Paint tech in the mid-80s was a bit like a bad marriage-the color (base) and the shine (clear) didn't always want to stay together. If your Jag has been sitting in the sun, you're likely seeing "delamination." That's the fancy word for when the clear coat starts lifting off the trunk or roof in ugly, white flakes. Once that clear starts to bubble or peel, the pigment underneath is defenseless against the elements, and you're one car wash away from a "sunburned" hood.

Restoration Tip

When dealing with 1986 factory paint, your biggest enemy isn't just a scratch-it's an entry point. If you see a rock chip in your Jaguar Racing Green or Sebring Red, you need to seal it immediately. On these mid-80s Jags, a tiny chip acts like a perforated edge on a notebook; once moisture gets under the clear coat at the edge of that chip, the delamination will spread like a wildfire across the panel. Clean the area, dab your touch-up color to protect the metal, and most importantly, ensure you level it with a fresh clear layer to lock the edges down. Don't wait for the "cloud peeling" to start, or you'll be looking at a full respray instead of a simple fix.
