The Color Breakdown

Nissan gave us 13 distinct flavors of late-70s and early-80s style for the 210. They really leaned into the earth tones of the era, offering everything from the deep Thunder Black and Dark Brown Metallic to the surprisingly adventurous Rallye Red. Whether your car is dressed in the subtle Mesa Tan or the shimmering Diamond Mist Metallic, these colors were designed to make a compact car feel like a class act.

What to Watch For

Because the 210 comes from an era when paint technology was still finding its footing, you're likely dealing with one of two things: "chalking" or "thinning." If you have a solid color like Alpine White or Desert Yellow, the paint tends to get a dusty, chalky film over time. If you have a metallic like Burgundy Mist, keep a close eye on the roof and the tops of the fenders-the sun loves to nibble away at the shine until the paint starts to look a bit thirsty.

To find your exact match, skip the door jamb. On these vintage beauties, your paint code is usually stamped onto a small silver metal plate located in the engine bay, either on the firewall (the back wall of the engine compartment) or the radiator core support (the metal bar right behind the grille).

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're working with one of the many metallics, like French Beige Metallic or Mission Tan Metallic, your biggest hurdle is the "settle." Those tiny metallic flakes like to nap at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or bottle for a full two minutes-even if your arm gets tired-to ensure those sparkles are evenly distributed. When applying, think "less is more." Use the tip of the brush to dab tiny amounts into the chip rather than painting a long stroke. It requires patience, but building up three thin layers will look much better than one big, thick blob that stands out like a sore thumb.

Before you order Nissan 210 paint

How do I confirm the right color for my Nissan 210?

Use the paint code from the Nissan 210 label and match it to the color page before ordering. The model page narrows the list, but the paint code decides the match.

Where do I find the paint code for Nissan 210?

For the Nissan 210, start with the make-specific code guidance: Nissan paint color codes are on the driver's door jamb. Some labels are low on the jamb and require bending to read. The color label may be small. Codes are typically three characters long using letters and numbers; sometimes a space and a fourth character follow. The same code can have different marketing names across models. AX6 corresponds to Redline Clearcoat; AX6 may also be called Red Clearcoat or High Performance Clearcoat. Nissan North America phone number is 1-800-647-7261. If the label is missing, ask a dealer parts department for a VIN lookup before ordering paint.

Why should I use the paint code instead of the color name?

The paint code is safer than the color name. Similar names can appear on different years, models, or makes.

What if the code is missing?

Use the paint code guide, check other label locations, or ask a dealer to look up the code by VIN before ordering.

Can trim, bumper, or finish differences affect Nissan 210 touch up paint?

Yes. Body paint, trim paint, wheel paint, textured parts, and special finishes can use different materials or codes for Nissan 210. Match the exterior paint code for body-color repairs, and verify a separate finish before ordering paint for trim, wheels, or unpainted parts.

What product should I choose for Nissan 210 repair?

For Nissan 210 repair, use a pen for tiny chips, a bottle for small chips or short scratches, a spray can for larger areas that can be masked, and PRO sizes for panel or spray-gun work. Choose a kit when the repair also needs primer, clearcoat, sanding, or polishing supplies.
