Chevrolet S10 Touch Up Paint (19 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

The Chevrolet S10 is the ultimate "get it done" truck, and GM gave us 19 different ways to dress it up for the job site. The palette ranges from the "I'm here to work" White and Pewter Metallic to the "I'm here for the tailgate party" Sunburst Orange Pri Metallic. They even threw in some northern flair with Canadian-exclusive shades like Dark Green and Tan. Whether you're driving a Superior Blue Metallic beauty or a classic Red regular cab, these trucks were built with more personality than your average modern pickup.

What to Watch For

Before you start your driveway transformation, you need to find your truck's "birth certificate." Chevrolet hid the paint code on a sticker inside the glove box. Look for a code that starts with "WA" or "U" (for Upper color). If your S10 has a fancy two-tone look, you might also see an "L" for the Lower color.

Keep an eye out for "sunburn" on the hood and roof. S10s from this era are famous for clear coat peeling, where the top layer starts to flake off like a bad tan. If you see white, crusty edges around a chip, it's a sign that the clear coat is losing its grip. Don't panic-catching these spots early with a touch-up pen keeps the moisture out and the metal happy.

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're working with one of the many metallic options like Fine Silver Birch Metallic or Indigo Metallic, your biggest secret weapon is a good workout. Those tiny metallic flakes like to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or bottle for a full 60 seconds-longer than you think you need-to wake up the sparkles.

When applying, resist the urge to fill a deep chip in one go. If you put on one giant blob, it'll look like a mountain on your hood. Instead, dab on a thin layer, let it dry for 15 minutes, and come back for a second pass. It requires a little more patience, but your S10 will thank you by looking like a truck that just rolled off the lot instead of one that just survived a hail storm.
