Chevrolet Medium Duty Touch Up Paint (60 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Chevrolet didn't hold back with the Medium Duty line, recording a massive 60 colors over the years. They really went for it, offering everything from the iconic Wheatland Yellow-the unofficial color of "getting the job done"-to the surprisingly vibrant Tangier Orange and the classic Woodland Green. Whether your truck is a fleet-spec workhorse or a retired hauler, there is a good chance it's wearing a shade designed to be seen from a mile away.

What to Watch For

These trucks are the heavy lifters of the world, which means they spend a lot of time baking in the sun. Keep a close eye on the hood and the roof; Chevrolet paint from certain eras is known for "checking out" early, specifically by peeling or fading where the UV rays hit hardest. Before you start, you'll need your specific code. Don't go hunting around the chassis-grab a flashlight and open the glove box. You're looking for the "Service Parts Identification" sticker (the SPID label). Look at the bottom of that sticker for a code starting with "WA" or "U"-that's the secret handshake you need to get the right bottle of paint.

Driveway Repair Tip

When you're using a touch-up pen or brush on these larger panels, your biggest enemy is the "blob." Because many of these colors-like the Medium Blue or Dark Green Metallic-have a lot of pigment, you need to shake that bottle for at least 60 seconds. I mean it; set a timer. Once you're ready, apply the paint in thin, whisper-quiet layers. If you try to fill a deep chip in one go, it'll look like a mountain on a pancake. Two or three thin coats will lay much flatter and look far more professional than one thick glob. Patience is your best tool here!
