Chevrolet Stealth Grey Metallic (WA928L/46/G56) Touch Up Paint

The Look

Since your Silverado has been on the road since 2013 or 2014, you know this shade is the definition of a workhorse color. It is a moody, industrial grey that sits right between a standard charcoal and a deep granite. It does not shout for attention like a bright red, but it has a heavy presence that makes a truck look like it is carved from a single block of metal. Because your truck has likely seen some sun over the last decade, the finish might look a little flatter than it did on the showroom floor, but a clean touch-up will bring back that sophisticated, dark shimmer that defines this specific era of Chevrolet design.

Technical Details

This is a true metallic finish, which means the appearance of the repair depends entirely on how the tiny silver flakes settle into the paint. If the paint is applied too heavily in one spot, the flakes will bunch up and create dark, muddy patches that look like shadows on the surface. On the other hand, if the application is too thin, the repair will look too light. You want to avoid mottling, which is that cloudy, uneven look often found on metallic repairs. This happens when the flakes do not lay flat, so the goal is to create an even distribution across the repair area.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Chevrolet Stealth Grey Metallic (check for code WA928L/46/G56), you need to shake the container for at least sixty seconds to get those heavy metallic flakes off the bottom. You can find your official code on the silver Service Parts Identification sticker located inside your glove box. To ensure the shade matches your current paint, always test the color on the included card before you touch the truck. When you are ready to work in your garage or the shade, apply the paint in thin, light layers. Keep the container moving at all times to prevent the paint from pooling. Give the surface plenty of drying time between each layer so the flakes can lock into place.
