Your Paint Color Profile

045 - White

The Look

This shade represents the birth of the luxury SUV era. When the LX450 arrived in the mid-90s, this color provided a clean, rugged identity that separated it from its Toyota Land Cruiser siblings. It is a bright, neutral white that lacks the yellow or cream undertones found on modern luxury vehicles. Since your LX450 has likely spent nearly thirty years facing the sun and the trails, the surrounding finish might have lost some of its original gloss, but this pigment remains the factory standard for a crisp restoration.

Technical Details

You are working with a solid finish, which is a significant advantage for a DIY repair. Because there are no metallic flakes or pearl additives to worry about, you do not have to fret over the orientation of the particles or the angle of the light. The benefit is excellent coverage and a straightforward color match. The risk with a solid white of this age is that it reveals every bit of road grime or surface oxidation. If you do not clean the area thoroughly, the bright pigment will highlight any lingering grease or wax, making the fix stand out against the old paint.

Best Practices

Open your driver's side door and look for the identification sticker on the jamb; the digits you need are located next to the "C/TR" heading. Before you spray or dab Lexus White (check for code 045), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. This is a heavy-pigment formula that settles over time, so mixing is the only way to ensure the shade is accurate. Test the color on the included card to see how it looks against your weathered panels before you begin. Keep the container moving as you apply thin layers, and give the area plenty of drying time to prevent the product from sagging. Working in a garage or the shade will keep the metal cool and help the finish level out properly.

ensuring the right match

How to Find Your Lexus's Color Code

Lexus, manufactured by Toyota, shares many color codes. On all models, a color ID plate on the driver’s door jamb shows C/TR followed by the paint code. Example: C/TR 3P1 FA09, where 3P1 is the color code; FA09 is an interior option code. The same paint can have different names across models (e.g., 3P1: Impulse Red Metallic Clearcoat, also Red Metallic Clearcoat or Wine Metallic Clearcoat). Dealers can provide the color code via VIN.

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.
