Ford paint manufacturing codes come in two forms, the short 1 to 3 digit model/year code which changes frequently and the longer 4 digit code which starts with the letters "M", "WT", or "MX". M are production paints, WT and MX are commercial or special order. These longer codes don't change over the years for a particular paint formulation; therefore, it is the best code to track the usage of Ford paint.

The Ford special paint code MX709482 indicates that the color shade is generally White because it is in the MX70900 to MX709999 range, which are colors that are in the White category. Although for the MX709 prefix colors we do see some gold, purple or other bright colors. MX codes were early Ford special order numbered paints, many were customer color matched, sometimes corporation trademarked, and in some cases matched to other manufacturers due to their popularity. In this case, MX709482 appears to be a special order paint which matches 1990 White.
