Chevrolet Medium Blue Poly (24 (1975)) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This color captures the essence of 1975, appearing across the Chevrolet lineup from the Corvette to the Nova. Since your vehicle has been on the road for nearly half a century, you will likely notice that the existing finish has shifted slightly due to decades of sun and weather. This blue isn't aggressive or dark; it sits right in the middle of the spectrum, offering a cool, composed vibe that defined the mid-seventies aesthetic. It provides a clean, professional look that highlights the body lines of these classic cruisers without being loud.

Technical Details

Because this is a metallic finish-denoted by the "Poly" in the name-you are dealing with thousands of tiny flakes suspended in the pigment. This creates a specific risk of mottling, where the flakes cluster together and make the repair look blotchy or striped. If you don't maintain a consistent flow, the metallic particles will settle poorly, causing the touch-up to look darker or lighter than the original surface depending on the angle of the light. Achieving a match requires patience to ensure those flakes lay down flat and uniform across the repair area.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Chevrolet Medium Blue Poly (check for code 24 (1975)), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to fully suspend the metallic flakes. You can usually find your trim tag located on the firewall under the hood, near the brake master cylinder, which will confirm your color identity. To avoid heavy spots or dark edges, keep the container moving at all times during application. Always test the color on the included card first to see how the metallics settle before you touch your car. Work in your garage or a patch of shade, and give each layer plenty of drying time so the finish sets firmly.
