COLOR CODEWA423Y/G6P - Jungle Fever MetallicChevrolet Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This color is a rare find, appearing almost exclusively on the final run of the Caprice and its performance sibling, the SS. It gives these muscular sedans a sophisticated, earthy character that stands out from the usual black and white units. It is a deep, forest-toned green that feels organic and purposeful. Since your Caprice has likely been on the road for several years, you are probably dealing with small chips that break up that dark, glassy reflection. Restoring this finish helps maintain the authoritative presence these cars are known for.

Technical Details

This is a true metallic finish, which means it relies on a specific balance of tiny flakes to catch the light. The challenge with a deep green like this is mottling, where the metallic particles clump together and create dark, blotchy patches. If the flakes do not lay flat and even, the repair will look like a shadow rather than a smooth part of the bodywork. You are aiming for a uniform distribution of these particles to ensure the color shifts naturally as you walk around the car.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Chevrolet Jungle Fever Metallic (check for code WA423Y/G6P), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can typically find your paint code on the silver Service Parts Identification sticker located inside your glove box or hidden in the trunk near the spare tire. Once you are ready, keep the container moving to prevent the metallic flakes from piling up in one spot. Test the color on the included card to confirm your layering technique matches the car. Always work in a garage or the shade, and give the paint plenty of drying time between light coats to ensure the finish stays level.
