Mazda CX-70 Paint Info
The Color Breakdown
Mazda really leaned into their "premium" vibe for the CX-70, offering a tight edit of 6 colors. While the world is currently obsessed with "50 shades of grey," Mazda actually tried to spice things up. You've got the earthy Zircon Sand for that "I definitely go camping" look, the flashy Melting Copper Metallic, and the deep, moody Jet Black Pearl. They also included their famous Tricoats-Bright Red and White-which are stunning but definitely have an "it's complicated" relationship with road debris.
What to Watch For
Here's the honest truth: Mazda paint is famous for being gorgeous but notoriously thin. If a pebble even thinks about hitting your hood, it's probably going to leave a mark. Because the clear coat is on the softer side, you'll likely notice small "craters" or chips on the front bumper and the leading edge of the hood. The good news? Your CX-70 makes it easy to find your matching "war paint." Just open the driver's side door and look at the jamb; the 3-digit paint code is right there on the VIN sticker next to the words "COLOR CODE."
Driveway Repair Tip
If you're working with the Bright Red or White Tricoat, you aren't just painting; you're layering. These usually come in a two-bottle kit (a base color and a sparkly top coat). To get that factory glow, don't try to fill the whole chip at once. Apply a tiny dot of the base color first, let it dry for 20 minutes, and then go in with the top coat. Most importantly, shake that bottle for a full 60 seconds. Those metallic flakes in Polymetal Gray and Melting Copper like to settle at the bottom, and you need them awake and dancing to make your repair look right!
