How to Find Your Chevrolet Traverse's Color Code

Chevrolet did not make it easy to find the color code. Over the years they used many different locations and did not standardize the color plate, so it can be hard to locate. Usually it is in the glove box or the spare tire well; otherwise, the search may extend everywhere. The typical code is 51/WA316N, usually preceded by BC/CC. Two tone codes can appear as BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N (U for Upper, L for Lower).

The Color Breakdown

Chevrolet has recorded a massive 143 colors for the Traverse, and it's clear the naming committee had a lot of fun in the lab. While you have your standard Summit White and Silver Metallic, they also leaned into some personality with Black Meet Kettle Pearl, Edible Berries Metallic, and the oddly casual Some Kinda Blue. Whether your car is dressed in Son Of A Gun Gray or Old Blue Eyes Metallic, Chevy's palette proves they weren't afraid to "go for it" on the assembly line.

What to Watch For

Before you get started, you need to find your "Service Parts Identification" sticker to get the exact match. Unlike many cars that hide this on the door frame, the Traverse usually keeps its secrets in the glove box. Look for a code starting with "WA" or "U" (like U316N).

The reality check? Traverse paint is known for being a bit on the thin side. Owners frequently report "peppered" hoods from road gravel and occasional bubbling or chipping on the front fascia. If you have a Cajun Red or Iridescent Pearl model, these multi-stage colors require a little extra patience to get the depth right, so don't rush the process.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since Traverse paint is famously thin, the "blob and hope" method won't work here. If you're using a touch-up pen, use the "dabs, not stabs" technique. Instead of drawing a line across a scratch, use the tip of the pen to deposit tiny droplets of paint into the center of the chip and let them flow to the edges.

Pro Tip: Many Traverse colors-like Abalone White or Black Meet Kettle-have heavy metallic or pearl flakes that like to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake that pen for a full two minutes (play a song while you do it) to wake up those sparkles so your repair doesn't look like a flat, dark spot on your shiny SUV.
