COLOR CODELRC325/46252 - GreenLand-Rover Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This is the quintessential color of the mid-eighties transition when the Land Rover 90 and 110 began to define the modern off-road era. It belongs on a vehicle that earns its keep in the dirt rather than a showroom. Because your car has lived through decades of adventure, this shade carries a sense of heritage and utility that newer greens cannot replicate. It is a deep, functional pigment that looks at home against the mud of a trail or the gravel of a farm lane. Since your Land Rover has been on the road since 1986, the original finish has likely developed a character of its own, but this replacement shade will bring back that factory-honest grit.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, meaning there is no metallic flake or pearl particles to complicate the match. Solid colors are a double-edged sword for your repair. The benefit is that the color remains consistent from every angle, so you do not have to worry about the paint looking darker or lighter as you walk around the vehicle. However, because it lacks the distracting sparkle of a metallic, this paint will highlight any dust or hair trapped in the finish. You should perform your repair in a clean garage or a patch of shade to keep the surface as pristine as possible before the liquid sets.

Best Practices

You can usually find your paint code stamped onto the metal VIN plate located on the bulkhead behind the engine or along the radiator slam panel. Before you spray or dab Land-Rover Green (check for code LRC325/46252), you need to shake the container for at least a full minute to ensure the heavy green pigments are distributed. Test the color on the included card to confirm it matches your weathered panels before touching the car. When applying, keep the container moving to avoid pooling and allow for plenty of drying time between each light coat to prevent runs.
