Your Paint Color Profile

66/WA9236 - Dark Auburn Metallic

The Look

It's 1990. You're in a corner office with a mahogany desk. That's the vibe of this color. It's a deep, wine-soaked brown that only Cadillac could pull off during the peak executive era. You'll find it on the Fleetwood, the Eldorado, and the DeVille. It isn't a "look at me" red. It's heavy. It's substantial. It hides road grime like a secret, but under the sun, it reveals a sophisticated warmth that modern flat colors just can't mimic.

Technical Details

This is a true metallic. That means you're dealing with physics, not just pigment. Those tiny flakes love to clump together if you get greedy with the application. If you apply it too thick, the finish will look muddy or blotchy. In the shade, it looks almost black; in the light, the auburn glow should be even. Darker metallics like this are prone to striping if your rhythm is off. Precision matters here.

Best Practices

First, find your validation. Check the SPID label under your trunk lid or on the spare tire cover to confirm the match. Before you spray or dab Cadillac Dark Auburn Metallic (check for code 66/WA9236), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. The metallic sediment is heavy and settles fast. Test the color on the included card to ensure the flake distribution is right. Keep the container moving at all times to avoid dark spots. Work in thin, patient layers and respect the drying time between coats. Don't rush the depth.

ensuring the right match

Find your Cadillac paint code

Cadillac used many locations for paint codes, making them hard to find, often impossible. GM (parent company of Cadillac) did not standardize the plate location. Usually the code is in the glove box or the spare tire well; otherwise it may be elsewhere. The typical format is 51/WA316N, usually preceded by BC/CC (e.g., BC/CC 51 or BC/CC 316N). There are two codes in one, and a U or L may precede for Upper or Lower. Two-tone examples: BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N.

Will absolutely order from this company again.

After ordering touch-up paint from Lexus I was still waiting for it a month later. If they'd told me upfront it would take that long I wouldn't have ordered in the first place. Paint Scratch was recommended by a friend who restores cars. Easy ordering, fair price and fast shipping. The color match is great especially considering my car is a 2012. Will absolutely order from this company again. Reason I chose this business: Lexus collision repair and a local collision repair. Will use paint less dent removal and touch up chipped paint myself. Reason I chose this product: Spouse sideswiped passenger side of car while backing out of garage. Mostly plastic transfer from his wheel well trim but pressure creased and cracked the paint causing a bare strip 1/8 wide x 4" long below door handle. Scratches on door handle and a few small chips on both doors.

Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans

Used Paint Scratch metallic custom mixed spray cans paint on a hood panel with excellent coverage and texture over the surface. Metallic paint can be very unforgiving out of a spray can, sputtering pigmentation dots on the panel being sprayed and thus ruining the paint job. No such issues with Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint spray cans. Paint sprayed strong and evenly till the last drop of paint in the can. Shipping time was faster than expected. Reason I chose this business: Having tried other brands of custom mixed metallic paint with terrible results, sputtering pigmentation tint dots from the spray nozzle in spite of vigorously shaking of can prior to application and loss of propellant rendering the lower fifth of the can's paint useless, Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint sprays out beautifully and strong all the way to the last gram of paint in the can. Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans for automotive restoration. Thank you Paint Scratch.
