GMC Medium Duty Touch Up Paint (59 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

GMC didn't just build these trucks for the job site; they gave them a wardrobe to match. We've tracked a massive 59 colors for the GMC Medium Duty line. While many are the "get-to-work" staples like Sable Black and Summit White, they really went for it with some vibrant choices like Wheatland Yellow, Tangier Orange, and the surprisingly classy Black Cherry. Whether your truck is a fleet-spec workhorse or a custom hauler, there is a lot of personality hidden in those paint codes.

What to Watch For

These trucks are built tough, but the paint can occasionally be a "sensitive soul." Keep a close eye on your door handles and the front edge of the hood; the finish here can sometimes get a little "bubbly" or start to flake away if left to the elements. If you see your clear coat looking a bit chalky on the roof, don't panic-it's just a sign that it's time for a little TLC before it starts to peel.

Finding your paint code is the first step, and for the Medium Duty models, it's a bit of a scavenger hunt. While most GMCs hide it in the glove box, the Medium Duty (like the TopKick) often hides its "Service Parts Identification" sticker on the side wall of the cab, specifically in the lower corner behind the passenger seat. If it's not there, check the passenger side sun visor or the door jamb. Look for a code starting with "WA" or "U"-that's your golden ticket.

Driveway Repair Tip

When you're standing in the driveway with your touch-up bottle, the secret to a professional-looking fix is all in the prep. If you have a flake or a chip, use a toothpick or a tiny brush to clear out any loose bits first-paint won't stick to a "moving target." Since many GMC colors like Light Slate Metallic use heavy flakes, give your bottle a serious workout; shake it for at least 60 seconds to wake up those metallics. Apply the paint in thin, dainty layers rather than one big "blob." If it doesn't look perfect on the first pass, don't worry; it just requires patience and a second thin coat once the first one is dry.
