Paint code LQ — Pale Adobe Met B/C
LQ is the factory code for Pale Adobe Met B/C, offered on Ford / Lincoln vehicles from 2011 to 2013. Give a paint supplier the code, not the colour name.
Check it's really your code: on a Ford it's on the driver's door jamb sticker, in the box marked EXT PNT — a two-character code.
Ford codes are two characters (like UA for Ebony) and often appear alongside a longer refinish number.
