Your Paint Color Profile

14/WA8767 - Black Metallic

The Look

This isn't your typical flat midnight. From 1987 to 1990, this shade was the secret weapon for the Chevrolet fleet. It's a deep, moody black that carries a subtle grit. It doesn't scream; it hums. You'll find it on everything from workhorse C/K trucks to the family cruisers like the Lumina or Corsica. It's a blue-collar luxury finish that catches the light just enough to prove it isn't basic utility paint.

Technical Details

You are working with a true metallic finish. This isn't a solid color. Those tiny flakes add depth, but they bring a challenge. If your layers are too heavy, the metal bits will clump. It'll look mottled. Striped. Messy. The benefit? This color hides road grime and light dust better than any flat black ever could. The cost? It shows every scratch if you don't finish it right.

Best Practices

Hunt for your code sticker in the glove box or on the spare tire cover. Before you spray or dab Chevrolet Black Metallic (check for code 14/WA8767), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. The heavy metallic particles love to sink to the bottom. Don't skip this. Test the color on the included card to see how the flake settles. Work in the garage or the shade to avoid the sun baking the paint too fast. Keep the container moving. Thin, patient layers are the only way to keep the shimmer even. Give it plenty of drying time between passes.

How to Find Your Chevrolet's Color Code

Chevrolet did not make it easy to find the color code. Over the years they used many different locations and did not standardize the color plate, so it can be hard to locate. Usually it is in the glove box or the spare tire well; otherwise, the search may extend everywhere. The typical code is 51/WA316N, usually preceded by BC/CC. Two tone codes can appear as BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N (U for Upper, L for Lower).

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.
