How to Find Your GMC Topkick'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

GMC didn't hold back when they dressed the Topkick-we've recorded 53 different colors for this workhorse. They really went for it, offering everything from the deep, moody Indigo Metallic to the "look at me" Tangier Orange and the classic Woodland Green. Whether your truck is a retired fleet vehicle or a custom hauler, it's clear GMC wanted to make sure you could spot a Topkick from a mile away.

What to Watch For

Before you start dabbing, you need to find your code. On the Topkick, it's playing hide-and-seek: check the side wall of the cab, specifically the lower corner behind the passenger seat. Look for a silver or white sticker with a code starting with "WA" or "U."

Now, for the reality check: these big GM trucks are famous for clear coat "sunburn" on the hood and roof, and you might notice the paint starting to flake or bubble right around the door handles. If you see a spot that looks like it's lifting, don't ignore it-catching it early with a touch-up pen is the difference between a quick fix and a much bigger project later.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many Topkick colors like Stealth Grey Metallic or Dark Spiral Gray are packed with metallic flakes, your first job is to shake that touch-up bottle like it owes you money. Shake it for a full 60 seconds to wake up those sparkles so they don't all sit at the bottom of the tube.

When you apply the paint, think "thin and patient." If you have a deep chip, don't try to fill the whole canyon in one go. Drop a tiny bit of paint in, let it dry for 20 minutes, and come back for a second layer. Getting a perfect match on these larger-than-life panels requires patience, but your patience will be rewarded with a finish that stands up to the job site.
