s2000 OEM Paint Codes.

Be sure to check for variants of the paint codes. If buying paint or mixing yourself be sure to also use the 11 digit in VIN, (a letter) after the vehicles paint code. For example:
Silver NH623M - (11th digit) NH623M-(T).
Most paint codes have variants, a redder flop or greener flop, blue and so on. Must like hues within colors.
Silver NH623M - (11th digit) NH623M-(T).
Most paint codes have variants, a redder flop or greener flop, blue and so on. Must like hues within colors.
Maybe that is why touch up paint from the dealer is always off.

Factory paint process.....
1) Pretreat and electrodeposition
Pre treat is a chemical degreaser and water clean followed by a zinc phosphate dip. Body is then cleaned and placed in an electrolytic bath of soluble primer (Cataionic Electrodeposition). This step provides a corrosion inhibiting layer. A chipping primer is then applied to chip prone areas.
2) Intermediate Coat
The intermediate coat is applied to further prevent damage
3) Top Coat Application
Enamel paint and either polyester or acrylic resin paint is applied for higher solidarity, smoothness, brightness, and weather resistance.
* Solid enamel + Clear Coat
*Metallic enamel + Clear Coat
*Pearl enamel + Clear Coat
