2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Paint Codes

Quick Reference

Where To Find Your Paint Code

To find the paint code for your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, you will need to locate the Service Parts Identification sticker. This sticker is typically found inside the glove box. In some cases, it may be located on the driver's side door jamb. The paint code is listed next to "BC/CC" which stands for Basecoat/Clearcoat.

How To Use Touch-Up Paint

1. Clean the area: Make sure the area to be painted is free of dirt, wax, and grease.
2. Apply primer: If the scratch or chip is down to the bare metal, apply a thin layer of primer to the area.
3. Apply basecoat: Apply a thin, even layer of the basecoat color. Allow it to dry completely before applying a second coat.
4. Apply clearcoat: Once the basecoat is dry, apply a thin, even layer of clearcoat to protect the paint and give it a glossy finish.

Color Matching Tips for Pearls and Tri-Coats

Pearl and tri-coat paints can be more challenging to match than solid or metallic colors. These paints have a mid-coat or pearl coat that creates a special effect. For these colors, it is especially important to use a test card to check the color match before applying the paint to your truck. It is also recommended to feather the edges of the repair area to help blend the new paint with the existing paint.

If you are not confident in your ability to match the paint color yourself, we recommend taking your truck to a professional.
