Specific example
After a certain period of use, rust spots may appear on the VAZ-2114 in the “Snow Queen” shade (there is one). Often the owner decides to resort to painting himself. If this is your first experience, the process may take two to three weeks if you devote no more than 2-3 hours a day to the process. First, preparatory work is carried out, including degreasing, sanding, priming, and putty.
- Grinding machine, grinder with emery wheels.
- Regular and fiberglass putty.
- Epoxy primer, special varnish.
- Paint "Mobile Snow Queen" in cans.
- Spatulas.
- Protective film.
- Glasses.
- Solvent, tape.
- Gloves, respirator.
Using a grinder, all problem areas are cleaned (wheel arches, trunk, lower parts of doors). After this, regular putty is applied, and where there are gaping holes, an epoxy analogue is used. The primer is applied in several layers at short intervals. Preliminarily unattended areas are protected with film. The paint is applied in three layers, and the top is additionally treated with varnish. The result is most often successful. You can’t do without some shortcomings, but for the first time you can close your eyes to the little things, and there’s no more rust. The VAZ-2114 is painted in a similar way in gray, with the selection of the appropriate shade.
Despite all the variety of body colors of the 14th VAZ, choosing it, although difficult, is quite possible. This can be done with the help of specialists or special documentation. The table presented at the beginning of the article will provide additional assistance. Experts recommend a careful approach to painting your car yourself, since poorly done work will require quick rework and additional costs.

Characteristics
Regardless of color, the VAZ-2114 is equipped with a standard four-cylinder engine with eight valves. Front-wheel drive is paired with a standard transmission, as well as drum and disc brakes. Hatchbacks differ from sedans in the capacity of the trunk, the volume of which increases with the rear seats folded. Aerodynamic performance has been improved due to the smoothness of modern body lines. In general, the car in question is a traditional representative of Russian automobile production. Most modifications have an injector installed; since 2011, an electronic gas pedal has been equipped.
WHAT DOES METALLIC MEAN?
Metallic paint is a type of auto enamel to which aluminum powder pigment has been added. The metal filling makes the composition reflective. The body begins to shine and sparkle in the sun.
The advantages of the technology include the fact that the surface of the body better reflects heat, so the interior heats up in the sun much less.
In addition, metallic has high anti-corrosion properties, so saffron milk caps appear less frequently.
Additional aluminum particles protect the paint from fading. The car looks “new” for much longer.
Other methods
What colors of VAZ-2114 exist are indicated in the table above. It is difficult to accurately determine the shade offhand. However, there are several additional methods:
- Changes can be traced back to 2005, when the manufacturer began publishing a paint plan. It is used as a guide, taking into account the exact release date of the car. Thanks to it you will find the original color of the vehicle.
- Contact an official dealer. Our service specialists will easily determine the color thanks to their experience. In addition, even if the desired shade is not available, they will be able to order it from the factory.
- Coloristics. Special devices, using computer selection, will mix the components in the required quantity. Real fuel tank flap professionals will be able to recreate the entire paintwork of a car.
How to determine the color of a VAZ 2113, 2114, 2115 by year of manufacture
This summer I decided to change the bumpers to new ones. I reached under the spare tire to look at the color number on the plate. The sign was there. There is only one BUT: it was NOT FILLED! The second sign was not in place at all. The documents for the car listed the body color as “graphite metallic”. I started searching on the Internet: how to determine the color? There are several ways (except for the color plate, you can use the VIN) and it seemed to me the simplest - by the year of manufacture of the car.
I am attaching an image (photo of the table):
Standard method
Typically, a VAZ-2114 in black or another shade is classified according to a special label. It is located on the spare tire, in the glove compartment or trunk. The name of this card is “Form-3347”. The color is marked with a number because it often has an original name that is not related to its actual display.
Manufacturers often recommend that users write the color number on the inside of the fuel filler door. If the vehicle was purchased on the secondary market, the previous owner may have worried about this point. The warranty card also contains information about the color of the VAZ-2114 (photo of the car below). The information is recorded in the upper left corner using a special form (near the VIN).
↑ Pros and cons of the platinum color of the Lada Vesta
The standard enamel color of a Lada Vesta car has long used various colors - from white to silver. Both the sedan and the SW station wagon are offered in the following palette:
- "glacial";
- "cornelian";
- "angkor";
- "Carthage";
- "blues";
- "phantom";
- "Pluto";
- "black Pearl";
- "platinum".
All these shades do not affect the cost of Lada Vesta cars in the basic configuration, except for the technologically difficult to create phantom 496 metallic, for which an official surcharge of 12,000 rubles is provided. In addition, each color is assigned a coding: this makes it easier for both sellers and buyers to find the required Vesta sw cross 2022 color.
For example, two-layer enamel in the shade of white glacial is coded 221, beige Carthage in a metallic shade is designated in the nomenclature list as 247, and the outwardly discreet, yet attractive Angkor is coded 246.
Important. The color palette of Lada Vesta is constantly updated; according to official data, it is planned to have about 20 different shades, most of them are based on metallic colors. To make it easier to understand such diversity, each tone is assigned a specific code, for example, for a blue phantom it is 496.
According to reviews from the owners of Lada Vesta, who conducted a test drive of this car, there were no particular disadvantages in the “platinum” color, in comparison with black pluto or carnelian brown: rather, on the contrary, this color is designed for calm, balanced drivers who do not particularly strive to stand out in the traffic cars on the highway.
But, with all this, it is simply impossible not to notice the noble silver color. It also goes well with inserts and chrome-look body trims on the car’s cladding, and fits almost any wheel rims.
There can be only one drawback: if foci of corrosion on the body are not detected in a timely manner, the paintwork will have to be repaired, and this can only be done in a specialized service center, and it will not be cheap.
