Your Paint Color Profile

162 - Maroon

The Look

Whether this shade is on a 124 Spider or a boxy 128, it carries a heavy dose of 1970s soul. It is not a bright, loud racing red. Instead, it is a mature and earthy tone that anchors the car to the road. Since your Fiat has likely lived a long life, the original paint might have lost some of its depth or changed hue from years of sun exposure. This makes a careful approach vital to getting the right match for your specific vehicle.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish. You will not find any metallic flakes or pearl effects in this bottle or can. The lack of metal means you do not have to worry about the color looking different from various angles, which makes it much easier to work with than a silver. The trade-off is that dark, solid colors are honest. They show every imperfection and scratch. Before you spray or dab Fiat Maroon (check for code 162), you must shake the container for a full minute to ensure the heavy red pigments are mixed.

Best Practices

Check for your identification plate on the passenger side firewall under the hood or on the underside of the trunk lid. When you are ready to begin, keep the container moving to ensure an even flow across the surface. Test the color on the included card first to see how well it sits against your current finish. If you are working in your garage or in the shade, bring in extra lighting so you can see the edges of the repair clearly. Give the paint plenty of drying time between layers to avoid runs or buildup.

How to Find Your Fiat's Color Code

Fiat paint color code locations vary by year and model. Possible spots include the driver's side door jamb; under the hood; sometimes on the front of the vehicle near the engine. Also on the underside of the hood, often near the lock mechanism, or on the side of the hood, which becomes visible when the boot is opened. Another location is inside the trunk or on the side of the lid, particularly on models like the Fiat 500.

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.
