Volkswagen Fox Touch Up Paint (21 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Volkswagen really decided to have some fun with the Fox, offering a surprisingly deep palette of 21 colors. From the vibrant Raspberry Metallic and the ocean-ready Marine Blue to the classic Alpine White, they definitely didn't stick to a boring "utility" script. Whether your Fox is rocking a bold fruit-inspired hue or a sophisticated Terrabraun Metallic, it's a car that wears its personality on its sleeve (or, well, its fenders).

What to Watch For

Finding your paint code on a Fox can be a bit of a scavenger hunt. Look in the trunk or rear compartment area, specifically around the spare tire well. You're looking for a paper identification tag-though be warned, these tags were known for falling off decades ago. If it's missing, the driver's door frame or the engine bay are your backup plans. As for the paint itself, the Fox tends to have slightly brittle factory finishes. Keep a close eye on the front hood for stone chips and the roof for UV fading. These spots are common, but they are totally manageable if you catch them before they decide to invite rust to the party.

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're working with one of those gorgeous metallics like Flash Silver or Orly Blue, your biggest secret weapon is a good wrist workout. Shake that touch-up bottle for at least 60 seconds-longer than you think you need-to make sure the metallic flakes are actually suspended in the paint and not sitting at the bottom of the jar. When you apply it, resist the urge to fill the whole chip in one go. Using a tiny dab from the tip of your brush in thin, light layers will give you a much smoother finish than one thick blob. It requires a little patience, but your Fox will thank you for the extra care.
