Mazda Truck Touch Up Paint (124 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Mazda didn't just give us a truck; they gave us a palette. With 144 colors recorded, they really went for it-ranging from the flashy Bright Sapphire Metallic and Aztec Gold Metallic to the more "incognito" Medium Graphite Metallic. Whether your truck looks like it belongs on a beach in the 90s or in a modern gravel pit, there's a specific shade for it. Most of these colors have a "sister" in the Ford family tree, but your Mazda wears them with its own unique flair.

What to Watch For

Here's the honest truth: Mazda paint is famously "spirited," which is a polite way of saying it's a bit thin. These trucks are rock-chip magnets, especially on the leading edge of the hood and the front fenders. You might also notice the clear coat getting a little tired on the roof or the tops of the bed rails if it has spent its life under the sun.

To find your exact match, open the driver's door and look for a sticker on the jamb or the door edge. You're looking for a two or three-digit code (like "12R" or "6P"). If it's not there, pop the hood and check the firewall (the metal wall behind the engine)-it's often hiding on a small metal plate there.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many Mazda Truck colors are metallics or pearls (looking at you, Toreador Red), your biggest secret weapon is the "The Long Shake." Before you touch the truck, shake your paint pen or bottle for a full 60 seconds. Those tiny metallic flakes like to settle at the bottom, and you need them dancing in the paint to get a good match.

When you apply the paint, think of "thin layers" as your mantra. Instead of one big, round glob that looks like a grape, dab a tiny amount into the center of the chip and let it flow to the edges. If the chip is deep, let it dry for 20 minutes and do a second tiny dab. It requires patience, but your truck's hood will thank you for not giving it a "polka-dot" look.
