COLOR CODELA6H - Cipressino-GruenVolkswagen Touch-Up Paint

The Look

Your 2024 Tiguan is one of the few vehicles on the road wearing this specific shade of forest-inspired green. It is an earthy, modern color that moves away from the typical greys and silvers that dominate parking lots. Because your car is so new, the original finish likely has its full factory depth, which makes a precise repair even more important. This green changes character depending on the light, shifting from a muted moss in the shade to a vibrant, organic glow under the sun.

Technical Details

This finish is a metallic, which means the paint contains tiny flakes that catch the light. These particles are heavier than the paint itself and naturally sink to the bottom of the container while it sits on your shelf. If you do not mix them thoroughly, the repair will look like a flat, dark green smudge instead of a shimmering match. Metallic paints are also prone to mottling or striping if the application is too heavy in one spot. To avoid this, you must ensure the flakes distribute evenly across the surface so the light reflects at the same angle as the rest of your door or hood.

Best Practices

To verify your match, look for a white paper sticker located in your trunk, typically hidden inside the spare tire well or under the floor mat. Before you spray or dab Volkswagen Cipressino-Gruen (check for code LA6H), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to suspend those metallic flakes. Test the color on the included card to confirm the shade before you move to the car. Whether you are using a pen or a can, keep the container moving in steady, light passes to prevent the paint from pooling. If you are working in your garage or the shade, allow plenty of drying time between layers to let the metallic structure set properly.
