Your Paint Color Profile

WA323N - Graphite Grey Effect

The Look

This color is a rare bird in the GMC lineup. Appearing briefly in 2007, it gave the Envoy a much heavier, more executive presence than the standard fleet silvers of the era. Because it was only around for a single model year, your SUV carries a shade that most people mistake for a standard charcoal until the sun hits the metallic flakes. It is a practical choice for a daily driver because the deep grey masks the road salt and dust that usually ruins a clean look on darker vehicles. Since your Envoy has been on the road for nearly two decades, this paint provides enough depth to help a repair blend into the existing finish without drawing the eye to the repair site.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish, which means the appearance changes depending on the light. The "Effect" in the name comes from tiny metallic particles suspended in the pigment. These flakes are your best friend for hiding small surface imperfections, but they require a steady hand. If you apply the paint too thick in one spot, those flakes will bunch up and create dark patches or stripes. You want those particles to lay down flat and even across the surface. Metallic paints like this are less about the thickness of the layer and more about the consistency of the flow.

Best Practices

You will find your paint code on the silver Service Parts Identification sticker located inside your glove box. Before you spray or dab GMC Graphite Grey Effect (check for code WA323N), you need to shake it for at least sixty seconds. This is a heavy-pigment metallic, and the finish only works if the flakes are fully suspended. Whether you are using a nozzle or a brush, keep the container moving to prevent the color from pooling in the center of the chip. Test the color on the included card first to ensure the darkness matches your vehicle's current weathered finish. Allow plenty of drying time in a covered garage or the shade between thin layers rather than trying to cover the damage in one heavy pass.

ensuring the right match

Find your GMC paint code

GMC placed paint codes in many different locations, making them difficult to find, and GM did not standardize the color plate location across makes and models. Codes are often found in the glove box or the spare tire well; otherwise they could be elsewhere. Typical format: 51/WA316N, usually preceded by BC/CC (e.g., BC/CC 51 or BC/CC 316N). Two-tone entries may use U or L for Upper or Lower (e.g., BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N).

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.
