Mazda Mazda 2 Touch Up Paint (1 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Mazda really went for it with the Mazda 2, offering a palette that proves small cars don't have to be boring. While we have 1 color officially recorded here, between that sunny Yellow, the legendary Spirited Green, and the punchy True Red, these cars were clearly designed for people who want to stand out in a sea of beige SUVs.

What to Watch For

Now for the honest truth: Mazda paint is gorgeous, but it's a bit "delicate." It's famous for being on the thinner side, which means your hood and front bumper are basically magnets for rock chips. You'll likely find a collection of "road rash" spots if you do a lot of highway driving. To find your specific match, pop the driver's door and look at the driver's side door jamb. There's a black sticker there with a 3-digit code (like 36A or A4A) that tells your car's life story.

Driveway Repair Tip

When you're holding that touch-up pen, remember that Mazda's vibrant finishes require patience. Because the paint is thin from the factory, don't try to fill a deep chip with one giant glob of paint. Think in "whispers" instead of "shouts." Apply a tiny dab, wait 20 minutes, and then add another thin layer if you need to build it up. Also, if your color has a metallic shimmer, shake that bottle for a full 60 seconds-those tiny sparkles love to hide at the bottom, and you need them awake to get that factory glow back.
