Where To Find Your Paint Code
For all late-model GM trucks, including your 2025 Sierra 1500, the paint code is located on a silver sticker in the driver's side door jamb. This is the Service Parts Identification sticker. You will see a long list of three-character codes. Look for the one that starts with "WA" or "BC/CC" for "Basecoat/Clearcoat." The four-digit number that follows is your paint code. For example, Summit White is often listed as WA8624.
Best Touch-Up Paint Sources
- Dupli-Color: Excellent for common colors like Summit White and Onyx Black. You can find their products in most auto parts stores.
- AutomotiveTouchup: A great online source for precision-matched colors in pens, bottles, and aerosol cans.
- Your GMC Dealer: The parts department at your dealership can provide a touch-up pen or bottle that is a guaranteed match to your VIN.
How to Use Touch-Up Paint
- Clean: Wash the area with soap and water, then use a wax and grease remover.
- Primer: If the scratch is down to the metal, apply a thin layer of primer.
- Basecoat: Apply thin coats of the color basecoat until the primer is no longer visible.
- Clearcoat: After the basecoat is dry to the touch, apply a clearcoat to protect the paint and restore the shine.
Color Matching Tips for Pearls and Tri-Coats
White Frost Tricoat is a three-stage paint. For a perfect match, you will need to apply the basecoat, then a mid-coat (the pearl layer), and finally the clearcoat. It is highly recommended to use a test card to check your application technique before applying to the truck.
