COLOR CODE2463 - VelocityJaguar Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This is a loud, high-energy blue that Jaguar originally reserved for its high-performance Special Vehicle Operations cars. It gives an F-Type or F-Pace a sense of motion even when it is sitting in your driveway. Because it was featured on the brand's most expensive models like the XJ, the color has a depth that looks deep and expensive. Since your car is likely a 2023 or newer model, the factory finish still has its original vibrancy, so you have a great chance of making a repair that looks right to the naked eye.

Technical Details

This is a heavy metallic finish that relies on tiny flakes to catch the sun. The biggest challenge with a color like this is making sure the metal particles lay flat and even. If you apply the paint too heavily in one spot, the flakes will sink and the repaired area will look much darker or dirtier than the rest of the panel. You want the flakes to stay near the surface to reflect light properly. This finish is prone to looking blotchy if you try to get full coverage in a single go, so focus on thin, translucent layers.

Best Practices

You will find your color information on a sticker located on the driver-side door jamb. Before you spray or dab Jaguar Velocity (check for code 2463), you need to shake the container for a full two minutes to distribute those heavy metallic flakes. Work in a cool garage or the shade to prevent the metal surface of the car from getting too hot, which can cause the paint to dry before it levels out. Test the color on the included card to get a feel for the flow of the nozzle or brush. Once you begin, keep the container moving at a steady pace to ensure the finish stays uniform and bright across the entire repair area.
