Your Paint Color Profile

19 (1980) - Black (Starlight Sable)

The Look

Black is the most honest color you can put on a car, and in 1980, it was the definitive choice for everything from the sharp-edged Monte Carlo to the rugged C10 trucks. This isn't just a dark shade; it is a deep, obsidian mirror that highlights every body line and curve your Chevy has. Because your vehicle has been on the road for over forty years, the original finish has likely developed a unique character, but this deep pigment is the key to bringing back that factory-fresh authority. When it is clean and polished, it offers a depth that modern metallic colors simply cannot match.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, which means it contains no metallic flakes or pearls to distract the eye. While that makes for a pure and classic appearance, it also means the paint is unforgiving. Every speck of dust or minor surface scratch will stand out against the dark background. The benefit is that matching the color is straightforward, but the challenge lies in the texture. If the paint isn't applied smoothly, you may see a slight "orange peel" effect. Before you spray or dab Chevrolet Black (Starlight Sable) (check for code 19 (1980)), you need to shake the container thoroughly to ensure the pigments are perfectly distributed for a consistent shade.

Best Practices

To confirm you have the right match, look for the metal trim tag riveted to the driver's side of the firewall, tucked just under the hood in the cowl area. Once you are ready to begin, work in a cool, dust-free garage rather than out in the direct sun. Always test the color on the included card first to see how it looks once it is dry. When applying, keep the container moving to prevent the paint from pooling or running. If you are using a spray can, maintain a consistent spray distance and apply several light layers rather than one heavy coat. Allow enough drying time between these layers to build a durable, level surface that will blend into your classic's timeless profile.

ensuring the right match

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.
