Radiator Grill respray

I have a MY13 Freelander 2 HSE luxury with a Crome radiator grill that is showing signs of paint flaking.
I am looking for a colour code for the silver/Crome colour that is deteriorating.
Can anyone help please.

Thanks for your help over it. It would appear atlas silver seems to be the popular response. I’ll have a look.

Good luck finding it ...I couldnt. Mines getting a bit worse, but haven’t done anything about it. I bought some silver touch up paint from Halfords and it looked close to me.

Think I'll wait for mine to get a lot worse. There's nothing to corrode under the paint so its just looks and I usually make a mess painting, The masking job done by olosteve looks very thorough though

I have had a look at my vehicle spec on Topix and it shows that my side vents are indeed ‘Atlas’ which is the same colour as the radiator grill. I can’t get a colour code for it though. If anyone can help.

Hello
As a follow on to the colour coding for the grey/silver grilles on all Land Rover products.
I have been lucky to have the best guys to give me the right info who work for Axalta who supply paint for JLR.

There is only one ‘Cromax’ Silver colour code for radiators on Land Rovers.

The code is as follows:

Bu0113 (platinum)

And reference to his can be found on the Axalta website.

See below
