Your Paint Color Profile

78/WA400P - Transition Blue Metallic

The Look

Your Saturn Aura or Outlook carried this shade during the brand's final years. It is a mature, mid-tone blue that shifts with the light. While many blues of this era were too dark or too bright, this one balances a professional look with a bit of character. Since your car has spent years in the sun, the original paint might have lost some depth, but the blue remains a classic choice that ages better than many flat colors from the same generation.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish. Tiny flakes inside the paint give the surface shimmer, but they require a steady hand for a good result. If you apply too much paint in a single pass, those metallic particles cluster together and create dark spots. You want the flakes to lie flat in a uniform layer across the repair area. This ensures the light reflects the same way across the whole panel. A heavy application creates a blotchy appearance that stands out in the daylight.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Saturn Transition Blue Metallic (check for code 78/WA400P), you need to shake the container for a full minute. You can find the confirmation for your color on a silver or white sticker inside the glove box or under the spare tire cover in the trunk. Test the color on the included card to see how the metallic particles settle before you touch the car. Keep the container moving as you apply thin layers. Respect the drying time between each coat to prevent the paint from sagging or trapping moisture.

ensuring the right match

How to Find Your Saturn's Color Code

Saturn used many different locations for the paint color plate over the years, making it hard to find. The paint code is usually in the glove box or the spare tire well; if not there, it may be elsewhere. GM did not standardize the location across makes and models. Codes like 51/WA316N are often preceded by BC/CC; two tone cars may show U or L (Upper/Lower), e.g., BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N. There can be eighteen different code 51's so 316N identifies the color.

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.
