Ford Other Other Models Touch Up Paint (29 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Ford's "Other Other Models" category is essentially a treasure chest of vintage flair and specialty picks. With 29 recorded colors, they really leaned into the aesthetic of the '70s and '80s. We're talking about gems like Ginger Glow Poly, the sparkling Copper Diamond Fire Poly, and the deeply nostalgic Medium Slate Blue Poly. Whether you're driving a classic cruiser or a forgotten workhorse, these colors weren't just "paint"-they were a statement.

What to Watch For

If your Ford is rocking one of these classic shades, you've probably noticed that time is its biggest enemy. These older "Poly" (metallic) finishes are prone to "chalking"-where the paint looks a bit dusty or dull-and the clear coat on the hood and roof often likes to lift or peel away after a few decades in the sun. To find your exact match, start by looking at the driver's side door jamb for a safety sticker with "EXT PNT" followed by a code. If your ride is a true vintage soul and isn't there, pop the hood and look for a metal tag on the firewall or radiator support.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since most of these colors are "Poly" (which is just old-school speak for metallic), those tiny sparkles love to settle at the bottom of the bottle like sand at the beach. Shake your touch-up bottle or pen for a full two minutes-yes, set a timer! If you don't, your first dab will be too thin and your last dab will be a glitter explosion. When applying, don't try to "paint" a long stripe; instead, use the tip of the brush to dab tiny dots into the chip until it's filled. It requires some patience, but your Ford will thank you for the extra love.
