How can I find my Nissan paint codes?

There are a few different ways to find your Nissan paint codes. On most Nissan vehicles, the paint code is typically a three-character code of letters, numbers, or both. This can usually be found on a sticker located either on the driver’s side door jamb or under the bonnet. Alternatively, you could try using our handy lookup tool. Just enter your registration number and we’ll find the colour code for your Nissan Micra or X-Trail. All you need to do is note it down and order your Chipex™ kit and we’ll do the rest.

Do I need a primer or clear coat with my Nissan touch up paint?

Our Nissan touch up paint is an all-in-one formula, so you won’t need to worry about purchasing extras like a clear coat for a hardwearing repair. The patented lacquer in our touch up paint creates a strong protective coating so your repair will last just as long as your original paintwork. In most cases, you won’t even need a primer when using our repair kits. However, if the chip or scratch is particularly deep or penetrates into the metal, you may need to use primer to help make the paint adhere better.

How long will my Nissan touch up paint repair last?

Our high-quality Nissan touch up paint is formulated to last as long as the original paintwork. However, how long a repair lasts often depends on the application. Poorly applied paint can fail, leaving your car at the mercy of rust and corrosion and potentially exposing the original scratch or chip.

Which Chipex™ UK kit is best for minor chips and scratches?

We know that sinking feeling when you discover a chip or scratch, which is why we made our Nissan touch up paint straightforward to use. What’s more, we offer three different-sized kits so you can minimise waste and never spend more than you need. Depending on the extent of the damage, we recommend our Chipex™ Lite or Chipex™ Plus kits. Chipex™ Lite contains enough paint to cover 12 areas of damage and is ideal for repairing stone chips. For deeper scratches, our Chipex™ Plus kit includes enough paint to cover 24 imperfections, so you can build up the layers if required. If your scratches are very minor, try buffing them away with our premium scratch remover.

Can I repair road rash on my Nissan with a Chipex™ paint kit?

Absolutely! We know how annoying road rash can be because there’s nothing you can do to prevent it from happening. Stop frustrating scrapes in their tracks with our Chipex™ Pro kit. It contains the largest quantity of paint and other accessories, and has a longer shelf life than our other kits, so you’re always ready to deal with road rash. For larger areas of damage, you may need to use a primer for best results.

Is the Chipex™ system worth it for my Nissan?

If you want professional-standard results without an expensive garage visit, our Nissan touch up paint is definitely worth it. We’ll use your Nissan paint codes to guarantee a perfect colour match, then custom mix your matte, metallic, or pearlescent finish. You’ll find everything included in your Chipex™ UK kit to achieve reliable results without the hassle. Just follow the detailed instructions included, and they’ll guide you through the three-step process for flawless results.

How can I get the best results using a Chipex™ kit with my Nissan?

Everything you need for a fantastic finish is included with your Nissan touch up paint. But our handy hints and tips will ensure a top-quality, durable repair: Always read the detailed instructions and check you have everything you need before you start. Safety first, always. Work in a well-ventilated area and wear the protective gloves provided. Never try to flood the damaged area with paint. Always work layer by layer for the best results. If you make a mistake, simply use the blending solution and your paint removal cloth to remove any smudges or smears while the paint is wet. Always use your touch up paint at temperatures above 0 °C to reduce the drying time. If you’ve had a respray, leave the paint to fully cure for one month before using your Chipex™ Nissan touch up paint.

About the Nissan Qashqai

The Nissan Qashqai is one of the most important cars in UK automotive history – the model that launched the crossover SUV category in Europe when it arrived in 2006. Now in its third generation and one of the UK’s top-five best-selling cars, the Qashqai is available with petrol, mild hybrid, and e-Power (full hybrid) powertrains and is a dominant choice in the family crossover segment.

As a family crossover used on a wide variety of road surfaces, the Qashqai sees stone chip damage on the front bumper, bonnet, and lower sills as a regular occurrence. Chipex stocks colour-matched touch up paint for every UK-market Qashqai shade across all three generations.

Nissan Qashqai Generations and Paint Code Location

The Nissan Qashqai has run across three main generations:

Mk1/J10 (2006–2013) · Mk2/J11 (2013–2021) · Mk3/J12 (2021–present)

Your Nissan Qashqai paint code is a three-character alphanumeric code. On all Qashqai generations, the paint code sticker is inside the driver’s door jamb – open the door and look for the white label on the door pillar. The code is listed clearly alongside the VIN and other vehicle data.

Some Qashqai shades have two-tone options with a contrasting roof – the body colour code and roof colour code appear separately on the sticker.

Common Nissan Qashqai Paint Issues

Front bumper stone chips and lower sill chips are the most frequent damage types – the Qashqai’s crossover stance exposes the lower body to road debris. Gun Metallic (KAD) and Pearl White (QAB) are consistently the most ordered Qashqai colours on the Chipex platform.

Pearl White is a pearlescent finish requiring 1–2 thin coats. Magnetic Red (NAH) and Ceramic Grey (KAE) are popular Mk3 colours – Ceramic Grey is a solid metallic that responds predictably to the Chipex application method.
