COLOR CODEWA412P/66/GCE - Sonoma Jewel MetallicGMC Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This color gives the Sierra a heavy, premium presence that typical bright reds cannot match. It is a deep, wine-toned pigment that shifts from a dark maroon in the shade to a vibrant cherry when the sun hits the metallic flakes. Since your truck has been on the road since the mid-2010s, you might find that the original finish has lost some of its depth, but this color remains excellent for hiding the road grime and minor scuffs that accumulate over years of service.

Technical Details

This is a true metallic finish, which means the look of your repair depends entirely on how the tiny flakes settle. If the paint is applied too heavily in one spot, the flakes will bunch up and create dark, muddy patches known as mottling. To avoid these stripes or spots, you must keep the container moving at all times. This ensures the metallic particles distribute evenly across the surface rather than sinking into a pool of wet paint.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab GMC Sonoma Jewel Metallic (check for code WA412P/66/GCE), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to properly suspend those metallic particles. You can verify your match by looking at the Service Parts Identification sticker, which GMC usually tucks inside the glove box. Test the color on the included card to see how the flakes react to your technique before touching the actual bodywork. Apply several thin layers to build the red depth gradually, and always allow for sufficient drying time between each pass in your garage or a patch of shade.
