COLOR CODE85/WA802K - Sunburst Orange MetallicHummer Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This color defines the peak of the mid-2000s rugged luxury era. When Hummer introduced this finish for the H2 and H3 in 2007, it was a loud departure from the standard blacks and silvers. It is a high-energy, high-visibility hue that demands attention. Because your truck has a massive surface area, this shade catches the sun at every angle, shifting from a deep burnt orange in the shade to a glowing copper under direct light.

Technical Details

This is a complex metallic finish packed with fine reflective flakes. Metallic paints like this are notorious for "mottling," which looks like dark clouds or tiger stripes in the finish. This happens when the metallic particles clump together rather than spreading out. If you are working in your garage or a patch of shade, you must be mindful of how the flakes land. If you apply the paint too heavily in one spot, the orange will look muddy and the metallic sparkle will vanish.

Best Practices

You can find your paint code on the silver Service Parts Identification sticker located inside your glove box. Before you spray or dab Hummer Sunburst Orange Metallic (check for code 85/WA802K), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. The heavy metallic flakes and orange pigments settle at the bottom quickly, so you need that agitator ball to do its job. Test the color on the included card to ensure the shade matches your current level of paint fade. When applying, keep the container moving to prevent the particles from pooling. Give the surface plenty of drying time between light coats to build the color depth without causing the paint to sag or the flakes to shift.
