Volvo V60 Touch Up Paint (32 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Volvo has given us 32 different ways to dress a V60, and they've clearly mastered the "Scandinavian Cool" aesthetic. While we have plenty of sophisticated options like Vapour Grey and Osmium Grey (they definitely leaned into the "50 shades of grey" vibe), they also let their hair down with the legendary Rebel Blue and Passion Red. Whether your wagon is a sensible commute-companion or a loud Polestar-tuned beast, there's a lot of depth in these finishes-especially the pearl effects like Black Sapphire and Crystal White.

What to Watch For

Before you dive in, you need to find your "paint fingerprint." Open your passenger-side doors and look at the B-pillar (the post between the front and rear doors). You're looking for a small sticker with a three-digit code-something like "619" or "707."

As for the reality of Volvo paint: it's famously beautiful but can be a bit sensitive. The V60 is prone to what I call "road acne"-small stone chips on the hood and leading edges of the fenders. If you're rocking the Passion Red, keep an eye out for "cloudiness" or fading in the clear coat if it's been baking in the sun too long. These cars are built for Swedish winters, but the paint appreciates a little extra love to keep that factory glow.

Driveway Repair Tip

When you're standing there with your touch-up pen, remember that Volvo's pearls and metallics (like Power Blue or Electric Silver) are packed with tiny flakes that like to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake that paint for at least 60 seconds-longer than you think you need to-to wake up those sparkles.

For those pesky stone chips, don't try to fill the whole crater in one go. Use the tip of a toothpick or the very edge of your brush to drop in a tiny dot of paint. Let it dry, then add another. It's a game of patience, not a race. If you're working with Crystal White Tricoat, remember that it's a multi-stage process; take your time with each layer, and you'll find that a perfect match is totally doable with a steady hand and a calm afternoon.
