WA9975 - Beige Chevrolet Touch Up Paint

The Look

Chevrolet Beige is the ultimate pragmatist of the mid-nineties. Appearing briefly in 1995 across a wide variety of models, this shade was designed to handle the realities of the road. Because your Chevy has likely spent thirty years facing the sun and the elements, the existing finish has probably taken on a character of its own. This color is a master of disguise, hiding road dust and dried mud far better than a bright white or a dark black ever could. It provides a clean, understated appearance that focuses on utility rather than flash.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, which makes your job much simpler than if you were dealing with a complex metallic. You do not have to worry about metallic flakes settling unevenly or creating dark spots if the flow is too heavy. The risk here is depth. Solid colors show every ripple if you apply the paint too thick. If you are working in your garage or a patch of shade, focus on thin layers. Heavy applications will lead to visible ridges that catch the light and reveal the repair.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Chevrolet Beige (check for code WA9975), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can typically find your paint code on the Service Parts Identification sticker located inside your glove box or on the spare tire cover. Test the color on the included card to see how the fresh pigment compares to your aged panels. Whether you use a nozzle, a brush, or a pen, keep the container moving to prevent the paint from pooling in one spot. Allow for plenty of drying time between each light coat to build a finish that sits flush with the original surface.
