Acura NS-X Touch Up Paint (15 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Acura didn't just build a supercar; they built a rolling art gallery. With 15 recorded colors, they really went for it. Whether you're rocking the sinister Berlina Black, the legendary Formula Red Tricoat, or the "look at me" Indy Yellow Pearl, your NSX was designed to turn heads. They even threw in some deep cuts like Midnight Purple Pearl and Brookland Green for the sophisticated types. It's a vibrant lineup that proves high performance doesn't have to mean "only silver or grey"-though if you do have Sebring Silver, you're in good company.

What to Watch For

Since the NSX sits lower than most lawnmowers, its "nose" is a magnet for road debris. You'll likely find peppering and chips along the front bumper and the leading edge of the hood. The good news? The body is aluminum, so you don't have to worry about those chips turning into rust bubbles. However, Acura's paint from this era is famously "soft." This means it's prone to light scratches, but it also makes it very cooperative when you're trying to lay down fresh touch-up paint. To find your specific flavor, open the driver's door and look at the door jamb; you'll see a sticker with a code like R-77 (Formula Red) or NH-547 (Berlina Black).

Driveway Repair Tip

Many of these iconic colors-especially the yellows, reds, and oranges-are "Tricoats" or "Pearls." This means they have layers of depth that regular paint doesn't. If you're using a touch-up bottle, shake it for a full two minutes. I'm not kidding. You need to wake up those metallic flakes and pearl pigments that have been sleeping at the bottom of the bottle. When applying, think "thin and patient." Instead of one big blob to fill a chip, dab in a tiny amount, let it dry for 20 minutes, and then add another layer. This builds the depth slowly and keeps the repair looking like part of the car rather than a thumbprint.
