How to Find Your Mazda CX-9's Color Code

Mazda color codes are normally on the drivers door jamb; some models hide them in the engine compartment. If not on the drivers door jamb, finding the code may take extra work. Codes are typically two or three digits, made of numbers and letters. Example: 21R. 21R is called Moonlight Gray Metallic Clearcoat in one naming, Grey Clearcoat by another name, or Moonstone Clearcoat by another name. Marketing may change the color name.

The Color Breakdown

Mazda clearly had a "look" in mind for the CX-9, and that look involved a lot of sophisticated, metallic drama. With 25 recorded colors, they really leaned into the "50 Shades of Grey" aesthetic-offering everything from Machine Gray Metallic and Polymetal Gray Pearl to Dolphin Gray and Meteor Gray. If you aren't into the monochrome life, they also gave us the show-stopping Soul Red Tricoat and the deep, moody Deep Crystal Blue Pearl. It's a palette that makes a family SUV look like it belongs on a runway, but it does mean you've got some sparkly metallic flakes to contend with in your driveway.

What to Watch For

Mazda is famous for many things, but "thick paint" isn't one of them. The CX-9 tends to have a "soft" finish, which is a polite way of saying it's a bit of a rock-chip magnet. You'll likely find most of your battle scars on the hood and the front bumper. If you have one of the lighter colors, keep an eye on the roof rails and liftgate, as the clear coat can occasionally get a little shy and start peeling there. Before you start, open your driver's side door and look at the VIN sticker on the jamb; your paint code is right there (look for a 2 or 3-digit code like 46V or 25D).

Driveway Repair Tip

Because so many CX-9 colors are pearls or "Tricoats," matching that factory depth requires patience. These paints have a lot of metallic "pixie dust" that likes to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or bottle for a full two minutes-set a timer on your phone-to wake up those sparkles. When you apply the paint, don't try to fill the whole chip in one go. If you put down one big blob, it'll look like a dark mole on the car. Instead, use the tip of a toothpick or the very edge of the brush to dab in tiny, thin layers. Let it dry for 15 minutes between dabs, and you'll see the color build up naturally to match the rest of the panel.
