Land-Rover LR4 Touch Up Paint (67 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Land Rover clearly didn't know when to quit with the LR4, and honestly, we aren't complaining. With a staggering 67 colors recorded, they didn't just give you a car; they gave you a personality. Whether you're rocking the deep, regal Buckingham Blue Pearl, the rugged Keswick Green, or one of the roughly fifty shades of grey like Stornoway, Orkney, or Corris, they definitely went for it. If your driveway looks like a rainy Tuesday in London, you've likely got one of their many sophisticated metallics; if it looks like a citrus explosion, you're one of the brave souls sporting Phoenix Orange Pearl.

What to Watch For

Before you start dabbling, you need your "secret handshake"-the paint code. On the LR4, you'll usually find this on a black manufacturer's sticker located on the driver's side door jamb. It's typically a three-digit code (sometimes preceded by "LRC"), like 820 for the ever-popular Santorini Black.

Now, the reality: these rigs were built for the elements, but the elements can be a bit rude to the clear coat. Keep a close eye on the hood and the roof edges. The LR4 is known for a "chalky" fade on the hood if it's spent too much time in the sun, and the clear coat on the rear tailgate can occasionally decide it wants to retire early and start peeling. If you see a chip, catch it early before the British weather decides to turn that tiny speck into a conversation piece.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many LR4 colors are "Pearls" or "Metallics" (looking at you, Firenze Red and Waitomo Grey), those tiny flakes like to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or brush for a full 60 seconds-longer than you think you need-to wake up those sparkles. When you apply it, resist the urge to fill a chip with one giant, ambitious glob. Instead, dab a tiny bit in, let it dry for 20 minutes, and then add another thin layer. Matching these complex depths requires patience, but thin layers will keep your repair looking like factory work rather than a high-school art project.
