Chevrolet Dark Hunt Club Red Metallic (84/WA9927) Touch Up Paint

The Look

Your truck comes from an era when Chevrolet defined the American road. This deep, rich red was a staple on C/K 1500 and Silverado models between 1993 and 1996. It gives your pickup a mature, rugged personality that looks just as good in the woods as it does on the highway. Since your vehicle has been on the road for a while, the original finish has likely aged under the sun, so the repair will help bring back that classic mid-90s factory grit.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish. The paint is packed with tiny flakes that catch the light to create depth. Metallics require a steady hand because if you apply the paint too heavily in one area, the flakes cluster and create dark, blotchy patches. This effect ruins the uniform look of the panel and makes the touch-up stand out as a shadow. You want the flakes to land evenly across the surface. Because this is a darker shade, any unevenness in the flow will show up as stripes or mottling.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Chevrolet Dark Hunt Club Red Metallic (check for code 84/WA9927), you need to shake the container for at least sixty seconds to get those metallic flakes into the mix. You will usually find your paint code on the Service Parts Identification sticker located inside your glove box. When you start the repair, keep the container moving to ensure the color spreads without pooling. Build the color in thin layers rather than one thick coat and allow for plenty of drying time between applications. Always test the color on the included card first to see how it matches the current state of your truck before you touch the bodywork. Work in a garage or the shade to keep the metal surface cool.
