LOCATION OF PAINT CODE


General Motors paint code plate for all models except Corvair and Corvette is located under the hood at the top of the firewall on left or right of upper shroud. Corvair paint code plate is on the left cross-rail in the engine compartment. Corvette paint code plate is an instrument panel brace, below the glove compartment.

TWO-TONE COMBINATIONS: CHEVROLET, BUICK AND PONTIAC


The first letter of a two-letter paint code identifies the body color. The second letter identifies the roof color. (For example, the combination EC on a Pontiac would indicate the body finished in Aegena Blue Metallic and the roof area in Cameo Ivory.)

TWO-TONE COMBINATIONS: OLDSMOBILE


The first letter identifies the body color and the second letter identifies the roof color. The third letter, when used, identifies the wheel color.

DULUX®


Dulux is not recommended for the repair of LUCITE - or other Acrylic Lacquer finishes.

NOTE:


It may be necessary, at times, to tint colors to produce a satisfactory match due to normal weathering and changes in color standards.

NOTE: Unrubbed LUCiTE® will generally produce a gloss comparable to original unrubbed interior semi-gloss finishes, "flats identified with an asterisk require the addition of 2 ounces Du Pont 4528 Flattening Compound. It may be necessary, at times, to tint colors to produce a satisfactory match due to normal weathering and changes in color standards. DULUX® is not recommended for repair of LUCITE® or other Acrylic Lacquer finishes. Unpolished Lucite® will generally produce a gloss comparable to original interior semi-gloss finishes. If lower gloss is required, use up to 1/2 oz. DuPont #4528 Flattening Compound to a pint of unreduced color.
