Volvo EX90 Paint Info
The Color Breakdown
Volvo stayed true to its Scandinavian roots with the EX90, offering a tight palette of 8 sophisticated tones. They really went for it with earthy, nature-inspired choices like Sand Dune and the rich Mulberry Red, alongside the crowd-pleasing Denim Blue Effect. It's a collection that looks more like a luxury watch lineup than a car catalog, favoring depth and texture over flashy neon.
What to Watch For
While this paint looks like a million bucks, it can be a bit sensitive. Early reports suggest the clear coat on the EX90 is on the softer side, which means those "divots" and stone chips on the front bumper can show up earlier than you'd expect. You should also keep a close eye on the area behind the door handles, as paint in tight recesses can sometimes be prone to lifting. To find your specific match, open your passenger doors and look at the B-pillar (the post between the doors). You'll see a silver label near the bottom; your paint code is a three-digit number tucked away on that tag.
Driveway Repair Tip
Since most of these colors, like Crystal White Tricoat and Onyx Black Effect, are packed with metallic flakes and pearls, they require a little extra patience to get right. Before you touch the car, shake your paint bottle for at least 60 seconds-longer than you think you need-to wake up those "effect" particles so they don't all sink to the bottom. When applying, avoid the "one big blob" method. Instead, use the tip of your brush to dab a tiny amount into the center of the chip and let it flow to the edges. If you're working near the roof or the bumper sensors, keep your layers very thin; this car is a rolling computer, and the sensors prefer a light touch!
