Mazda B2000 Touch Up Paint (12 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Mazda's palette for the B2000 was a delightful mix of "utilitarian truck" and "80s fever dream." With 12 recorded colors, they really went for it-ranging from the work-ready Aurora White to the surprisingly cosmic Space Yellow and Star Dust Blue Metallic. Whether your truck is a rugged Bronze Brown Metallic or the vibrant Sunrise Red, these colors were designed to look sharp under the sun, even if that sun hasn't been kind to them over the last few decades.

What to Watch For

Finding your color code is your first mission. On the B2000, Mazda usually hid the ID plate on the firewall (that metal wall behind the engine) or tucked it inside the driver's side door jamb. Because these trucks often used "single-stage" paint for solid colors, you might notice the paint looks a bit chalky or dull on the hood and roof. If you have a metallic shade like Tornado Silver, keep an eye on the horizontal surfaces where the top layer might start to flake or peel. Don't worry, though-it's just the truck showing its age, and it's nothing a little care can't fix.

Driveway Repair Tip

When you're ready to use your touch-up pen or brush, think "thin and patient." If your paint has that chalky look, give the spot a good wipe with a damp cloth and a drop of dish soap to get the grime off first. When applying the paint, dab the color into the chip rather than wiping it on like a wall. For those metallic colors like Seaside Blue, give your bottle an extra-long shake-at least two full minutes-to make sure all those tiny metallic sparkles are awake and ready to shine. Multiple light layers will always look better than one big glob!
