COLOR CODE67U/WA235L - Goldish Beige MetallicChevrolet Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This color is the champion of practicality. It was a staple for the Chevrolet Aveo during the mid-2000s, designed as a hardworking neutral that bridges the gap between silver and champagne. Because your car has likely spent nearly two decades on the road, you probably appreciate how well this shade hides road salt, dust, and general grime. It is an honest, utilitarian color that stays looking clean long after darker cars have surrendered to the dirt.

Technical Details

This finish is a true metallic, which means it relies on tiny reflective flakes to give the beige its "goldish" personality. This is where most DIY repairs go wrong. If you apply the paint too heavily in one spot, those flakes will bunch together and create dark, cloudy patches known as mottling. You want those flakes to lay flat and even so the light bounces off them uniformly. Because this is a two-stage finish, the color will look flat or slightly matte until you apply a clear coat to bring out the depth.

Best Practices

To find your confirmation, open your glove box and look for the silver or white Service Parts Identification sticker. Before you spray or dab Chevrolet Goldish Beige Metallic (check for code 67U/WA235L), you need to shake the container for a full two minutes to get the settled metallic flakes back into the mix. Always test the color on the included card first to see how the flake density looks. When you start the repair in your garage or the shade, keep the container moving to prevent the paint from pooling. Work in light, thin layers and allow plenty of drying time between each one to ensure the flakes stay exactly where you put them.
