Mazda CX-90 Touch Up Paint (10 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Mazda really went for the "sophisticated art gallery" vibe with the CX-90, offering 10 distinct shades that make it look like it costs twice as much as it actually does. Whether you're rocking the deep, moody Artisan Red Premium Tricoat, the nautical Deep Crystal Blue Pearl, or one of the many variations of Machine Gray Metallic, these colors are designed to play with the light. It's a beautiful lineup, though it does feel a bit like Mazda discovered "50 shades of silver and gray" and decided to include most of them in the brochure.

What to Watch For

Here's the honest truth from the driveway: Mazda paint is famously "dainty." It's applied thin for that signature deep look, but that means the clear coat can be a bit soft and prone to tiny chips on the hood and front bumper. If you see a little nick, don't panic-it's just a sign you've actually been driving the car. To find your exact match, open the driver's door and look at the sticker on the jamb (the B-pillar). You're looking for a three-digit "Color Code" (like 51F or 46G). This is your North Star; don't buy a bottle without checking it first!

Driveway Repair Tip

Since most of these colors-especially the Snowflake Pearl and Artisan Red-are "Tricoats," they have a lot of personality in the bottle. To get the best results, shake your touch-up pen or bottle for a full 60 seconds (set a timer!) to wake up those metallic flakes and pearls. When you apply the paint, think "thin layers, not big blobs." Use a tiny amount to fill the center of the chip, let it dry for 20 minutes, and add another layer if it still looks like a crater. These premium reds and whites require patience to get the depth right, but if you take it slow, that chip will disappear into the background like it was never there.
