COLOR CODEWA123X - Octane (Interior)Chevrolet Touch-Up Paint

The Look

Your 2018 Corvette was designed to feel like a fighter jet cockpit, and this specific trim color is the reason why. Since your car has likely seen its fair share of shifts and sunlight, the high-traffic areas on your console or dash might be starting to show some wear. This isn't just a basic black; it is a technical, sharp accent that gives the cabin its modern, mechanical edge. Because it was only used for a single year, keeping this specific finish sharp is the best way to maintain that factory-fresh C7 interior vibe.

Technical Details

This finish is a metallic, which is rare for interior trim and requires a bit more focus than a standard solid color. Those tiny metallic flakes are what give the surface its depth, but they can be temperamental. If you apply the paint too heavily in one spot, the flakes will sink and create dark blotches or "mottling." To get that crisp, uniform look that matches the rest of your trim, you need to ensure the flakes stay suspended. If they aren't distributed evenly, the repaired spot will look like a different shade entirely when the sun hits it through the window.

Best Practices

Before you begin work on your Chevrolet Octane (Interior) (confirming code WA123X), you should look for your paint ID on the driver-side door jamb, likely on a silver sticker or a scannable QR code. If it isn't there, check under the carpet in the rear storage compartment. Because this is a metallic, you must shake the container for a full sixty seconds to wake up those settled flakes. Always test the color on the included card to see how the metallic settles before you touch the interior. Whether you are using a Nozzle or a Brush, keep the container moving and apply thin, light layers. This prevents the paint from pooling and ensures the metallic sparkle matches the surrounding factory finish perfectly. Work in the Shade or a Garage to keep the surface temperature cool, and give it plenty of Drying time between layers.
