Lincoln LS Touch Up Paint (24 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

The Lincoln LS was a bold attempt at American-made "sport-luxury," and the paint department clearly got the memo. With a total of 24 recorded colors, they really leaned into the "Effect" and "Tricoat" lifestyle. You've got everything from the ruggedly named Light Tundra Metallic and Silver Birch to the high-society vibes of Ceramic White Pearl and Cashmere Tricoat. Whether yours is a daily driver or a garage queen, Lincoln made sure it had enough sparkle to stay relevant at the valet stand.

What to Watch For

Before you start dabbling, check your driver's side door jamb for the VIN sticker-look for the two-digit code right next to the letters "EXT PNT." Now, for the reality check: the LS loves its aluminum panels, but the paint doesn't always love the aluminum. Keep an eye out for small bubbles forming along the leading edge of the hood or the lip of the trunk; that's just the metal and the paint having a little disagreement. You might also notice the clear coat getting a bit "flaky" on the roof or trunk if it's spent too much time in the sun. Don't worry, though-it's nothing a steady hand can't improve.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many LS colors like Redfire Pearl or Silver Birch Effect rely on those tiny metallic flakes to look right, your biggest job is the "The Sixty Second Shake." Don't just give the bottle a wiggle; shake that touch-up pen like you're trying to wake up a teenager on a Monday morning. This ensures the heavy metallic bits aren't all huddled at the bottom. When you apply it, think "micro-layers." One thick blob of Cashmere Tricoat will look like a stray drop of toothpaste, but three paper-thin layers will let those sparkles sit flat and catch the light exactly like the factory intended.
