Paint Codes & Touch-Up Colors Ford – Where to Find the Paint Code Sticker, Shades & Touch-Up Pens

πŸ“ Where to find the exact paint code sticker/plate on Ford:

VIN plate/sticker on the right or left door B-pillar (when opening the front doors) – second or third small box in the left column above EXT PNT (2-char code e.g. Z2, BP, ZJ, J7, or full code 7VTA, JAYC).

Most Common OEM Paint Codes for Ford and Recommended Touch-Up Procedure:

OEM Paint Code Shade Name & Paint Type Recommended Repair Kit (Pen / Spray / 2K Clearcoat) & Application Tip
7VTA / Z2 (Frozen White) Frozen White (1K/2K Solid Acrylic Paint) Direct-gloss 1K/2K solid acrylic shade: for small stone chips, a single-stage 2-in-1 touch-up pen/brush is sufficient without requiring a separate clearcoat.
JAYC / BP (Panther Black) Panther Black Metallic (2K Metallic Paint) Requires a 2-coat system: 1K basecoat (touch-up pen or aerosol spray) + mandatory 2K clearcoat for high gloss and UV protection.
ZJNC / ZJ (Moondust Silver) Moondust Silver Metallic (2K Metallic Paint) Bright aluminum 2K metallic: shake the aerosol can thoroughly for 2 minutes before spraying, apply 2 thin basecoat mist coats, and top with 2K clearcoat after 20 min.
FM6E / J7 (Magnetic) Magnetic Grey Metallic (2K Dark Metallic Paint) Darker 2K metallic: when repairing scratches, degrease with silicone remover, wet-sand with P2000 grit, and apply a basecoat spray + 2K high-gloss clearcoat kit.
BRQA / PQ (Race Red) Race Red (1K/2K Solid Paint) Rich solid red: for deep scratches down to bare metal, apply anti-corrosive epoxy/zinc primer and white filler primer first so the red pigment covers evenly.
74 / J4 (Deep Impact Blue) Deep Impact Blue Metallic (2K Metallic Paint) Requires a 2-coat system: 1K basecoat (touch-up pen or aerosol spray) + mandatory 2K clearcoat for high gloss and UV protection.
