Chevrolet Corvette Le Mans Blue (19/WA933L) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This is a heavy-hitter color that carries the weight of racing history on its shoulders. Originally launched to celebrate dominance on the track, it provides a deep, sophisticated presence that makes any Corvette look like it belongs in the winner's circle. Because your car has likely been on the road since the mid-2000s, the finish has probably seen its fair share of sun. This deep blue can shift slightly over time, so you want to be mindful of how the light hits those curves when you begin your repair.

Technical Details

This is a true metallic finish, which means it relies on tiny flakes suspended in the paint to catch the light. Metallics are notorious for a phenomenon called mottling, where the flakes cluster together and create dark, blotchy patches or stripes. This happens if you apply the paint too heavily in one spot. Before you spray or dab Chevrolet Corvette Le Mans Blue (check for code 19/WA933L), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to ensure those flakes are evenly distributed. If the metallic isn't mixed well, the color will look too dark and lose that signature glow.

Best Practices

You can find your paint code on the RPO sticker, which is usually tucked inside the glove box or located under the carpet in the rear storage compartment. When you are ready to start, move the car into the garage or a patch of shade to keep the panels cool. Test the color on the included card before touching the car to ensure the shade matches your current paint. Whether you are using a nozzle or a brush, apply the paint in thin, light layers. This prevents the metallic flakes from sinking or "flooding," which is the best way to avoid those uneven dark spots. Between coats, give the paint enough drying time so it isn't tacky to the touch. Keep the container moving at all times to maintain a consistent flow across the surface.
