COLOR CODEWA245V - Brandy (Interior)GMC Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This shade defined the cabin of the second-generation GMC Terrain when it hit the road in 2018. It was a calculated move to break away from the standard sea of gray and black, offering a warm, deep brown that mimics the look of high-end, oiled leather. Since your Terrain has likely been through several years of daily commutes and road trips, you have probably noticed that this specific interior trim can show every little scuff and fingernail mark. When that rich, earthy tone gets scratched, it exposes the lighter material underneath, making a premium cabin feel worn out.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish, which gives the interior trim its sophisticated depth and subtle shimmer. Metallic paints carry tiny flakes that reflect light, but they can be temperamental. If those flakes do not distribute evenly, the color will look too dark or muddy compared to the surrounding trim. Because this paint is designed for interior surfaces, it is formulated to bond with specific textures, but the metallic nature means you have to be careful with how you apply it to avoid a "patchy" look where the light hits the dashboard or console.

Best Practices

You can usually find your paint information on the service sticker located inside your glovebox or on the driver's side door pillar. Before you spray or dab GMC Brandy (Interior) (check for code WA245V), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. This step is non-negotiable for metallic colors because the flakes settle at the bottom of the container. Test the color on the included card to ensure the brown and the shimmer match your specific trim before you touch the car. When applying, keep the container moving to prevent the paint from pooling or the flakes from clumping in one spot. Always work in a covered garage or the shade to give the area consistent drying time before you get back behind the wheel.
