2022 Land-Rover Touch Up Paint (24 OEM Colors)

The 2022 Land-Rover Vibe

By 2022, Land-Rover was fully leaning into the "adventure-meets-architect" aesthetic. You couldn't throw a rock in a high-end zip code without hitting a reborn Defender or a razor-sharp Velar. It was the year of the earth tone-everybody wanted their rig to look like it was carved out of a canyon wall. We've got 23 colors in our vault from this vintage, and honestly, it's like a greatest hits album of modern sophistication. Whether you're trying to match the rugged Pangea Green Metallic on a mud-caked 110 or the liquid-silk look of Batumi Gold Metallic on a flagship Range Rover, this was an era where the palette actually had some soul. We've even got the high-drama stuff like Namib Orange and Firenze Red for the three people who didn't order their Rover in a shade of "Stately Pebble."

Paint Health Check

Welcome to the Thin Paint Era. Back in the day, a Landy had enough paint on it to survive a brush with a rhino; in 2022, these rigs were sprayed by robots chasing "efficiency." These modern clear coats are incredibly thin-we're talking about a layer thinner than a single strand of hair. If you're driving a Defender, that flat, upright nose is basically a magnetic target for road gravel. The "Reality Check" for 2022 is that the clear coat is prone to micro-marring and "orange peel" textures right from the factory. If you've noticed small, white-rimmed chips on your Santorini Black or Carpathian Grey, that's the factory finish giving up the ghost because it just doesn't have the depth to absorb the impact.

Restoration Tip

When you're fixing a chip on a 2022 model, leave the "blob and go" method in the 90s. Because factory enamel is so thin, a big glob of touch-up paint will stand out like a sore thumb. Build your layers slowly. Apply a microscopic dab of color, let it sit, and repeat until the chip is just below the surface of the surrounding paint before you even touch the clear coat. Don't over-polish, either; you've only got a few microns of clear to play with before you're staring at the primer. Take it slow, stay thin, and keep that Tasman Blue looking like it just rolled off the transport truck.
