Your Paint Color Profile

5171 - China Gray

The Look

Tactical. Stealthy. This isn't a typical silver. It is a flat, heavy gray that looks like it belongs on a fighter jet. On a Vantage or a DBX, it creates a clean, industrial silhouette. It is the color of cold concrete and stormy mornings. It works because it is simple. No fluff. Just muscle.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish. No metallic flakes. No pearl. Just dense, honest pigment. Solid colors are brutal. They show every ripple in the bodywork. If your prep isn't flat, the light will catch the waves. There is zero sparkle to hide behind. The benefit? You don't have to worry about flake orientation. It is easier to match than a metallic, provided your surface is smooth.

Best Practices

Find your ID plate on the driver's side door jamb or under the bonnet. Before you spray or dab Aston-Martin China Gray (check for code 5171), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. Work in the garage or the shade. Always test the color on the included card before touching the car. Keep the container moving to avoid heavy spots or puddles. Solid colors need thin layers. Give them plenty of drying time to ensure the pigment settles flat and even.

ensuring the right match

Find your Aston-Martin paint code

Typical location for an Aston-Martin paint color code: the driver's door jamb. If the code cannot be found, Aston-Martin can be contacted to see if they can determine the color code. When no color code exists, the alternative identifier is the PPG or Dupont (Axalta) paint formula number.

Will absolutely order from this company again.

After ordering touch-up paint from Lexus I was still waiting for it a month later. If they'd told me upfront it would take that long I wouldn't have ordered in the first place. Paint Scratch was recommended by a friend who restores cars. Easy ordering, fair price and fast shipping. The color match is great especially considering my car is a 2012. Will absolutely order from this company again. Reason I chose this business: Lexus collision repair and a local collision repair. Will use paint less dent removal and touch up chipped paint myself. Reason I chose this product: Spouse sideswiped passenger side of car while backing out of garage. Mostly plastic transfer from his wheel well trim but pressure creased and cracked the paint causing a bare strip 1/8 wide x 4" long below door handle. Scratches on door handle and a few small chips on both doors.

Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans

Used Paint Scratch metallic custom mixed spray cans paint on a hood panel with excellent coverage and texture over the surface. Metallic paint can be very unforgiving out of a spray can, sputtering pigmentation dots on the panel being sprayed and thus ruining the paint job. No such issues with Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint spray cans. Paint sprayed strong and evenly till the last drop of paint in the can. Shipping time was faster than expected. Reason I chose this business: Having tried other brands of custom mixed metallic paint with terrible results, sputtering pigmentation tint dots from the spray nozzle in spite of vigorously shaking of can prior to application and loss of propellant rendering the lower fifth of the can's paint useless, Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint sprays out beautifully and strong all the way to the last gram of paint in the can. Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans for automotive restoration. Thank you Paint Scratch.
