My white 1990 Beretta GTZ
I am looking for touch up paint.

My sticker says:
BASE/CLEAR COAT-ENAM WA-L8554 U8554 82G

I tried NAPA and they cannot find it, the chevy dealer said they do not cary it anymore.

If someone knows where I can find it I need to buy some. I have 2 small spots that need touched up.

Thanks.
I'll give it a try.

Is this the same thing?

since it has the same 8554 number, I'd say yes. Your car has base coat and clear coat. The 8554 is the base color and the other number on your sticker
is the clear coat. The spray requires a clear coat over it to make it last. The touch up applicator is probably and one step paint so no clear coat is needed.

Thats good to know.
I'm just now getting I to paints and I'm starting from scratch.
I got an etching primer for the two small spots where it flaked down to the existing primer.

In my garage I have an old can for my 1993 Beretta WHITE GTZ. I will post the code off of it tomorrow.

ok.
Lessee here, May, June, July... Yep, that's dedication! One-Post Wonders... :roll:

My '89 GTU is only a single-stage, I am actually surprised yours was clear-coated... GM was pretty good at their white shading though, I've matched mine perfectly to everything from a Z-34 Lumina to a fourth-gen Firebird -white and red are the two hardest colors to match right because of shade (and warmth) differences.

Man, you really make me laugh. I am so glad you are on this Board, GT_Indy, some day if I can ever make it to a BFest, I hope you do too! :friends:

I believe it. There are lots of different shades of white that I found, I hope the ones mentioned above are a direct match.
