Land-Rover Freelander Touch Up Paint (31 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Land Rover didn't just stick to "mud-friendly" shades for the Freelander; they actually gave us 31 distinct colors to choose from. While you'll see plenty of the classic Chawton White and Epsom Green Metallic out in the wild, they also had some moments where they really went for it. If you're rocking Tangiers Orange, Borrego Yellow, or the deep Zanzibar Brown Metallic, you're driving a bit of a rolling statement piece.

What to Watch For

Before you start, you need to find your "North Star"-the paint code. On a Freelander, this is usually hiding on a black sticker located on the passenger-side door pillar (the B-pillar) or tucked under the hood on the radiator slam panel. Look for a three-digit code or a name like LRC 867.

As for the paint itself, these cars are sun-seekers, which means the clear coat on the hood and roof can sometimes get a little tired and start to peel. You might also notice small bubbles forming around the door handles or the rear wheel arches where road grit likes to hang out. Don't worry-these are just battle scars from being a Land Rover. They are totally manageable with a little focus and the right bottle of paint.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many Freelander colors-like Zambezi Silver Metallic or Santorini Black Pearl-are packed with metallic flakes and pearls, you have to be the "shaker-in-chief." Shake your touch-up bottle or pen for at least 60 seconds after you hear the mixing ball rattle to wake up those sparkles. When you're filling a chip, think of it like icing a tiny cupcake: use the very tip of the brush to dab a small dot of paint into the center of the chip and let it flow outward. Two thin layers will always look better and stay put longer than one big, heavy blob that might sag. If you're working with the brighter oranges or yellows, remember that these shades require patience to build up the color depth, so take your time and let each layer dry.
