Thread: Defender paint codes

Most of the Land Rover paint codes are listed on this site:

According to that site - the only (non metallic) blue used in '94 (apart from special vehicles) was:

Arles, Windjammer, Pacific Blue 90-97 LRC.424
Arles, Windjammer, Pacific Blue 90-97 LRC.424(VI)

If metallic then there is a choice of 5

When I bought my fender there was a small can of touch up paint with a paint colour number and a Land Rover logo on it in the console which matched the red colour of the vehicle. I bought a set of roof racks and thought I would spray them the same colour.

So off I trot to the spray paint warehouse in Five Dock which I was told stock all the paint colours under the sun. The guy puts the numbers on the can through the computer and comes up blank. He tried a few different sites both official and unoffical and ended up going through some sample patches up against the vehicle to match it.

The racks look OK and match the fender so all ended up OK.

Yep just looking at the PPG database and 424 is the code Arles or Windjammer Blue

I can mix up 500ml if you like either two-pack (you may need clear to go over the make shiney) or acrylic

Thanks weeds, PM sent.

Sorry it took so long to get back to you Good to see you in M.R. today Quite lucky for me as it turns out too

Goodluck

I've NEVER been able to id the colour of my April 98 TDi 300 cab chassis. I thought it was Eastnor Green AND got the Tray re sparayed and was spewing when i discovered that it wasn't.

Any bright ideas I'd be most interested.

G'day Stevo 62

That looks like Coniston Green or was your vehicle an Ex Saliman's as that is the Saliman's green colour

cheers

Hi Stevo,
The color is Coniston Green (570).
Only available until 1998.

The Link "Paul" put up is something i use daily, it is very good & almost all of his data is correct

I say this because on his chart he mentions your color until 93 only.
There are some small minor glitches but otherwise a great reference point.

Something for Moderators possibly to put on the site for a quick reference point to a paint chart as someone most times will be after a paint code & on the column to the left is the code (3 digits) & is very helpful.
