You can buy most any GM color at the dealer, under a special order, in small aerosol cans.
Go to your parts desk & see if the person knows what you're looking for. If they don't, tell them 12346549. But don't give it to them right away. Test'em first.
You can also get a clearcoat, 12345119, & even a primer 12345117.

Will regular off the shelf paint work?, wont it crack due to the heat?

when you primer, use a high heat primer and a high heat clear coat.

That was your initial question, SOM paint. That was my answer. Yes.
Do you want the number for Bright Red?!? Or perhaps NBM?!? Pewter?, ...

Ok so I went to the chevy dealer this morning and gave them the 12346549 number first he had no idea. then turns out to be that 12346549 is the code for a small brush tuch up paint... he then said he can get me a 5 oz SOM spray for 15.00, but he didnt recomend it for calipers since its not high heat resistent.he then dirrected me to nappa auto parts, but I had no luck there

what should I do?
