1991 Jeep Touch Up Paint (35 OEM Colors)

The 1991 Jeep Vibe

Welcome to 1991, the year of square headlights, flannel shirts, and the swan song of the legendary Grand Wagoneer. Whether you were wheeling a Wrangler YJ or daily-driving a Cherokee XJ, Jeep paint in '91 wasn't about flashy trends-it was about foundational survivors. While other manufacturers were experimenting with teals and magentas that aged like milk, Jeep stuck to the rugged essentials. Our database highlights the heavy hitters that actually lasted: Bright White, the deep Black Crystal, and that specific, semi-gloss Black meant for the fiberglass hardtops. These weren't just colors; they were the uniform for the trail.

Paint Health Check

If you're staring at your '91 Jeep today, you're likely dealing with the "Peeling Era." By 1991, the industry had moved firmly into the basecoat/clearcoat system, but the chemistry hadn't quite mastered UV resistance yet. On many of these rigs, the clear coat doesn't just fade-it delaminates. It starts as a small, cloudy bubble or a stone chip, and before you know it, the clear is flaking off in sheets like a bad sunburn, leaving the base color underneath exposed and vulnerable. If your hood or roof looks like it's got a case of automotive leprosy, you're looking at classic clear coat failure.

Restoration Tip

The golden rule for 1991 Jeep paint: Seal those chips immediately. Because this era is prone to delamination, a tiny rock chip isn't just an eyesore-it's an entry point for moisture and air to get between the color and the clear. Once that bond is broken, the clear coat will start to lift and "run" across the panel. If you spot a chip, clean it out and dab it with touch-up paint and clear before the edges start to curl. For those textured hardtops, don't try to use standard high-gloss body paint; stick to the dedicated Hard Top Black to keep that factory-correct, low-sheen look.
