GMC Yukon Denali Touch Up Paint (24 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

GMC didn't hold back with the Yukon Denali, giving us a massive library of 24 recorded colors. They really went for it, offering everything from the business-professional Pewter Metallic and Storm Gray Metallic to the more adventurous Indigo Metallic and the rich, wine-heavy Bordeaux Red Pearl. Whether your Yukon is dressed in a classic earth tone or a deep jewel-like green, it was designed to look substantial on the road.

What to Watch For

Before you start dabbing, you need to find your "birth certificate"-the paint code. On most Yukons, this is tucked away inside the glove box on a silver or white "Service Parts Identification" sticker. Look for a code starting with "WA" or "U" (like WA8555 for Black). If you have a newer model and the glove box is empty, check the driver's side door jamb for a sticker or even a small QR code.

As for the paint itself, these big SUVs are known for having "sensitive skin" on horizontal surfaces. Keep a close eye on the hood and roof; the clear coat here can get a bit shy and start to flake or look foggy if left in the sun too long. Also, watch the areas around the door handles, as the paint there can sometimes start to bubble or chip from frequent use.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many Denali colors-like that Bordeaux Red Pearl or Silvermist Metallic-rely on tiny flakes and pearls for their shine, your biggest secret weapon is the "Shake." Give your touch-up bottle or pen a solid 60 seconds of aggressive shaking to wake up those metallic particles.

When applying, remember that the Yukon is a large canvas, but your repair should be small. Instead of trying to fill a chip with one big glob, use the tip of your applicator to apply thin, "whisper-light" layers. If you're working with a pearl color, it requires patience; let each layer dry completely so the depth of the color can actually build up. You're not just painting a car; you're restoring a legend, one tiny dot at a time.
