Chevrolet Polyesian Green Metallic (WA992A/18U) Touch Up Paint

The Look

Your Geo Metro or Tracker is a rolling time capsule of the early nineties. This shade was a brief, bold experiment from 1993 that leaned heavily into the teal-crazed aesthetic of the era. It is not quite a forest green and not quite a blue; it sits right in that sweet spot of Pacific-inspired tones that defined the Geo brand's fun, adventurous personality. Since your car has likely spent the last three decades enduring the sun and the elements, do not be surprised if the original finish has softened or faded compared to the fresh paint in your hand.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish, meaning it relies on tiny flakes to catch the light and create that characteristic shimmer. Metallics are notorious for mottling-a phenomenon where the metal flakes bunch up and create dark, blotchy patches or stripes if applied unevenly. You need to be careful with your application to ensure these particles lay flat and uniform across the surface. If you apply the paint too heavily in one spot, the metal will sink and lose its sparkle, leaving you with a finish that looks more like a flat muddy green than a vibrant metallic.

Best Practices

On most Geo models, you can find your color sticker inside the glove box or occasionally on the spare tire cover. Before you spray or dab Chevrolet Polyesian Green Metallic (check for code WA992A/18U), you must shake the container for at least sixty seconds to properly suspend those heavy metallic flakes. Test the color on the included card to see how the green shifts under the light in your garage. When you begin, keep the container moving at all times and apply the paint in light, thin layers. Give each layer enough drying time so the finish sets properly without sagging or clumping.
