2024 Jaguar Touch Up Paint (9 OEM Colors)

The 2024 Jaguar Vibe

Welcome to the year of the "Sophisticated Silhouette." In 2024, Jaguar is gracefully pivoting, waving a final, supercharged goodbye with the F-Type while the I-Pace hums toward a silent future. The palette is a masterclass in modern restraint-we've got 9 shades in the stable, and they are heavy on the "Executive Greyscale." You've got your Carpathian Grey and Eiger Grey leading the pack, making every F-Pace look like it was carved out of a storm cloud. But for those still holding onto the soul of the brand, British Racing Green 5 and Firenze Red are still there, proving that a Jag isn't a Jag unless it looks like it's moving while standing still. It's a curated vibe: less "look at me" neon, more "I've already arrived."

Paint Health Check

Now, let's talk turkey. We are firmly in the Thin Paint Era. Back in the day, you could practically swim in the lacquer, but in 2024, the robots at the factory have become surgeons of efficiency. They apply just enough clear coat to pass a showroom inspection, which means your Santorini Black or Portofino Blue is sitting under a layer of protection roughly the thickness of a post-it note. The conflict here is "Robot Efficiency" vs. the real world. Because the factory coats are so lean, these cars are chip-magnets. One stray pebble on the highway and you're looking at a white speck on your Bluefire Blue hood. You'll also notice a bit of "orange peel" texture if you look close-that's the modern factory standard, a side effect of high-speed application that doesn't leave much room for leveling.

Restoration Tip

If you're touching up a 2024, leave the "blob and smear" technique in the 1990s. Because the factory finish is so thin, a massive glob of touch-up paint will stand out like a sore thumb. Build your layers slowly. Use a fine-tipped applicator and apply a thin skin of color, let it dry, and repeat until you're level with the surrounding surface. Don't try to fill the crater in one go. If you're working with Ostuni Pearl White Tricoat, remember that the depth comes from the layering, not the volume. Precision is your best friend here-treat it like you're pinstriping a masterpiece, not slathering a fence.
