Isuzu i280/i350 Touch Up Paint (9 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Back when the Isuzu i280 and i350 were rolling off the line, someone in the paint department clearly had a sense of adventure. We recorded a total of 9 colors for this run, and they didn't just stick to the basics. While you've got your classic Onyx Black and Arctic White, they really went for it with shades like the sunset-drenched Copper Orange Metallic and the moody Teal Gray Metallic. Whether you're driving the bright Yellow head-turner or the earthy Red Rock, these trucks were built to stand out in a parking lot full of silver sedans.

What to Watch For

Since these trucks share a lot of DNA with their GM cousins, they also share a few of their quirks. Before you start, pop open your glove box-that's where you'll usually find the "Service Parts Identification" sticker with your paint code (look for a code starting with "WA" or a simple 2-digit number). As for the paint itself, keep a close eye on the roof and the tops of the fenders. These trucks are known to have "shy" clear coats that like to peel or delaminate if they've spent too much time in the sun. If you see a white, flaky edge starting to form around a chip, it's time to step in before the sun starts snacking on your base color.

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're working with one of the bolder choices like Copper Orange Metallic or Superior Blue Metallic, remember that those metallic flakes are like tiny pieces of treasure buried in the paint-they need to be woken up. Shake your touch-up bottle for at least 60 seconds (actually time it!) to make sure the "sparkle" is evenly distributed. When applying, resist the urge to fill a deep chip in one big, goopy drop. Instead, think of it like painting a fingernail: apply two or three thin, whisper-light layers. This approach requires a little more patience, but it ensures the metallic bits lay down flat and catch the light exactly the way Isuzu intended.
