How to Find Your Cadillac STS-V's Color Code

Cadillac used many locations for paint codes, making them hard to find, often impossible. GM (parent company of Cadillac) did not standardize the plate location. Usually the code is in the glove box or the spare tire well; otherwise it may be elsewhere. The typical format is 51/WA316N, usually preceded by BC/CC (e.g., BC/CC 51 or BC/CC 316N). There are two codes in one, and a U or L may precede for Upper or Lower. Two-tone examples: BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N.

The Color Breakdown

Cadillac didn't hold back with the STS-V, giving us a palette of 23 colors that range from "I have a board meeting at nine" to "I'm taking the long way home." You've got the heavy hitters like the classic Black Raven and Light Tarnished Silver Metallic, but they also leaned into some personality with Arrival Blue Metallic and the moody Stealth Grey. It's a sophisticated lineup that says "executive performance," and they really went for it with those high-end pearl finishes.

What to Watch For

The STS-V has a "face" that's hungry for the road, which unfortunately means it's also a magnet for rock chips along the front bumper and the leading edge of the hood. Because these cars often lived in sunny climates, keep an eye on the roof and the tops of the door handles; the clear coat there can start to feel a bit thin or look "cloudy" if the sun has been working overtime.

To get started, you'll need your paint code. Cadillac likes to play hide-and-seek with this, but you'll typically find the "Service Parts Identification" sticker either inside the glove box or under the spare tire cover in the trunk. Look for a code at the bottom of the sticker starting with "WA" (like WA8555 for Black).

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're working with a stunner like White Diamond Tricoat or any of the "Effect" colors, those beautiful sparkles like to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or brush for a full two minutes-long after you think you're done-to wake up that metallic flake. When applying, think of it like nail polish: one thick blob will never dry right. Use the tip of the brush to dab tiny, light layers into the chip. If it's a pearl color, it requires a little extra patience to build the depth, but taking your time is the secret to making that repair disappear into the driveway shadows.
