How to Find Your GMC G10-G30 Series's Color Code

GMC placed paint codes in many different locations, making them difficult to find, and GM did not standardize the color plate location across makes and models. Codes are often found in the glove box or the spare tire well; otherwise they could be elsewhere. Typical format: 51/WA316N, usually preceded by BC/CC (e.g., BC/CC 51 or BC/CC 316N). Two-tone entries may use U or L for Upper or Lower (e.g., BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N).

The Color Breakdown

The GMC G-Series vans didn't just carry cargo; they carried some serious personality. With 21 recorded colors, GMC really covered the spectrum. We saw a heavy lean into the "earth tone" era with a literal trilogy of browns-Light, Medium, and Dark Mesa Brown-but they also weren't afraid to get loud. If you're rocking Wheatland Yellow or Tangier Orange, you're not just driving a van; you're driving a landmark. Whether it's the workhorse Polar White or the moody Dark Maple Metallic, these vans were built to be seen.

What to Watch For

If your GMC looks like it has a bad sunburn, don't panic-it's a classic GM trait from this era. These vans are notorious for "delamination," where the top layer of paint decides it's tired of hanging onto the primer and starts peeling off in sheets. You'll also want to check around the door handles and rain gutters, as those are the first places where the finish likes to beat a retreat.

Finding your paint code is your first mission. On the G10-G30 series, GMC liked to play hide-and-seek. Check the glove box first for a white "Service Parts Identification" sticker. If it's not there, slide that driver's seat forward; sometimes the sticker is tucked on the floor or the wall right under the driver's seat. Look for a code starting with "WA" or "U" (for Upper color). If you have a two-tone van, you'll see an "L" code too-that's for the bottom half!

Driveway Repair Tip

Since many of these van colors (like Light Blue Metallic or Forest Green Metallic) are packed with tiny metallic flakes, your bottle of touch-up paint is basically a snow globe. Shake that bottle for at least 60 seconds-longer than you think you need to-to wake up those sparkles.

When you're filling in a chip, don't try to fill the whole crater in one go. If you drop one big "blob" of paint in there, it'll shrink as it dries and look like a tiny raisin. Instead, dab in a thin layer, let it dry for 20 minutes, and then come back for a second pass. It requires a little patience, but it's the secret to a repair that actually stays put.
