Lexus LS Series Touch Up Paint (34 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Lexus didn't just give the LS Series a paint job; they gave it a wardrobe. With a staggering 42 colors recorded, they really went for it. You'll find everything from the sophisticated Moonlight Pearl Tricoat and Black Onyx to the surprisingly adventurous Autumn Blaze Metallic and Copper Brown Pearl Metallic. Whether your car is dressed in a classic silver or a deep "Bordeaux Mica," it's clear Lexus wanted these cars to look like they belonged in a gallery, not just a garage.

What to Watch For

While the finish looks like a million bucks, the reality is that Lexus paint is known for being a bit "soft" and thin. This means your hood might look like it's been in a gravel fight, as it picks up rock chips quite easily. You might also notice some clear coat peeling on the lower plastic trim or around the trunk edges as the car ages. To get your exact match, swing open the driver's side door and look at the jamb for a sticker. You're looking for a three-digit code right after the letters "C/TR"-that's your golden ticket to the right bottle of paint.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many LS colors are "Pearl Tricoats," they have a lot of sparkle living at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or bottle for at least 60 seconds-longer than you think you need-to wake up those metallic flakes. When you apply it, think of yourself as a surgeon: use tiny, light dabs rather than one big smear. If you're working with a pearl or mica finish, matching the depth requires patience; doing two or three very thin layers will give you a much better result than trying to fill a chip in one go.
