COLOR CODE2241 - British Racing Green 5Jaguar Touch-Up Paint

The Look

Your car carries the most famous color in motorsport history. On a modern 2025 or 2026 F-Type, this green represents the final chapter of internal combustion performance. It is a deep, sophisticated shade that transforms based on the light. In the shade or under garage lights, it appears nearly black and holds a serious, understated presence. When the sun hits your F-Pace, the metallic elements wake up and reveal a rich forest green with immense depth. It makes the car look expensive and grounded, avoiding the loud neon vibes of lesser sports cars.

Technical Details

This is an ultra-metallic pearl finish. Because the paint contains fine metal and pearl flakes, the way they lay down determines the final shade. If you apply the paint too thick or too fast, the flakes can "mottle," creating dark patches or stripes where the metal has bunched up. The goal is to get those tiny particles to lay flat and even. Since your Jaguar has a high-gloss factory finish, you will also need a clear coat over this base to match the shine and protect the green pigment from turning dull over time.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Jaguar British Racing Green 5 (check for code 2241), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can find this code on the manufacturer sticker located inside the driver's side door jamb. Once you hear the mixing ball rattling, keep shaking to ensure the metallic flakes are fully suspended. Always test the color on the included card first to get a feel for the flow. When you move to the car, keep the container moving in steady passes to prevent the paint from pooling. Give it plenty of drying time between layers, as rushing the process will trap solvent and ruin the metallic sparkle.
