WA9779 - Medium Gray (Interior) Chevrolet Touch Up Paint

The Look

Your 2008 Uplander was built to be the ultimate family workhorse, and this shade was the quiet backdrop to every road trip. Because it only appeared for a single production year, this gray is something of a rarity in the GM catalog. It isn't a color that demands attention; instead, it provides a neutral, calming atmosphere that does a decent job of hiding the scuffs and dust that come with years of service. Since your van has likely been on the move for over a decade, you will notice that high-traffic areas like the door handles and dash trim might have faded or lost their original crispness.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, which means it lacks the reflective flakes found in exterior paints. While that makes it easier to apply without worrying about mottling or stripes, the challenge with Chevrolet Medium Gray (Interior) (code WA9779) is matching the original factory sheen. Interior plastics are designed to be low-glare for safety. If you apply the paint too heavily, you risk creating a shiny spot that stands out against the surrounding matte surfaces. To keep the repair looking integrated, focus on building up thin layers rather than one heavy coat.

Best Practices

You can find your confirmation sticker tucked away inside the glove box-it is the silver label with a long list of three-digit codes. Before you begin, give the area a thorough cleaning with a mild degreaser, as skin oils can prevent the paint from sticking to the plastic. Test the color on the included card and let it dry completely to ensure the sheen matches your trim. Whether you are using a pen or a spray, keep the container moving to avoid pooling. Work in the shade to ensure the drying time remains consistent, as heat can cause the paint to set too quickly and leave an uneven texture.
