Buick Envista Paint Info
The Color Breakdown
Buick didn't just play it safe with the Envista; they really went for it. With 16 recorded colors, the palette ranges from the celestial Cosmonaut to the spicy Habanero. Whether you're sporting the seaside vibes of Maui or the moody depth of Darkmoon Blue, this isn't your grandfather's beige sedan. They even threw in some high-character options like Jinx Tricoat and Aegean, proving that even a crossover can have a bit of a wild side.
What to Watch For
The Envista is the new kid on the block, and while it looks sharp, modern GM paint tends to be on the "polite" side-meaning it's thin and a bit soft. You'll likely notice your first battle scars as stone chips on that sleek, low-slung nose or a bit of "orange peel" texture on the rear liftgate. To find your specific match, don't bother hunting through the glovebox. Head straight to the driver's side door jamb. You're looking for a silver or white sticker with a "BC/CC" heading; your code will usually start with "WA" or "U" followed by a four-digit string of numbers and letters.
Driveway Repair Tip
Because many of these colors-like White Frost Tricoat and Abalone White-rely on heavy pearl and metallic flakes, your bottle of touch-up paint is basically a snow globe. Those sparkles love to nap at the bottom. Shake that bottle for a full two minutes (set a timer, your arm should get a workout) to wake up the pigment. When you're ready to apply, remember that three thin, patient dabs are always better than one giant "glop." If you have a Tricoat, it requires patience: apply your base color first, let it dry until it's no longer tacky, and then whisper the sparkly topcoat over it for that factory glow.
