Pontiac Bonneville Touch Up Paint (55 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Pontiac didn't just make a sedan; they made a statement. With a massive library of 55 recorded colors, they really went for it. Whether your Bonneville is cruising in the sophisticated Dark Cherry Metallic, the shimmering White Diamond Pri Metallic Tri-coat, or the space-age Galaxy Silver Metallic, there is a lot of personality packed into these panels. It's a color palette that screams "classic GM" with enough metallic flake to be seen from across the parking lot.

What to Watch For

Before you start, you need to find your "birth certificate"-the paint code. On a Bonneville, the Service Parts Identification sticker likes to play hide-and-seek. Check inside the glove box, under the trunk lid, or on the spare tire cover. You are looking for a code that usually starts with "WA" or "BC/CC U" (like WA8554).

Regarding the condition: keep an eye on the hood and the roof. These wide, flat surfaces are sun-magnets, and the clear coat can get a bit tired over the decades. If you see the bumper starting to look a little "flaky" or the hood losing its luster, don't panic. It just means your Pontiac has lived a full life, and it's time for a little driveway spa day.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many Bonneville shades are heavy on the metallics and pearls, your biggest secret weapon is the shake. Don't just give the bottle a courtesy wiggle; shake that touch-up pen or bottle for at least 60 full seconds to wake up those metallic flakes.

When you're applying the paint, remember: dab, don't swipe. If you're using a brush or pen, think of it like applying a tiny drop of water to a leaf. If you have a deep metallic like Dark Blue Metallic, it requires patience-apply one very thin layer, let it dry for 15 minutes, and then decide if you need a second one. This prevents the "blob" look and keeps the color looking like it came from the factory, not a craft store.
