Where to look for the label on a Buick.

Will WA911L match my Buick if the paint has faded?

The kit is mixed to the WA911L formula — the same code printed on your vehicle’s paint label — not colour-matched by eye. On panels that still carry their factory paint, that reproduces the original tone.

Where it will not match

  • Panels bleached by years of sun sit lighter than the factory formula. The kit reproduces the original colour, not the faded one.
  • A panel that has already been resprayed is no longer the factory colour, so the code will not describe it.
  • Metallic and pearl finishes are harder to blend across a large area than solid colours — they are at their best on chips and thin scratches.
  • Damage larger than a few centimetres, or down to bare metal over a wide area, is body-shop work.

Perfect Match - Lapis Blue Pearl

Had severe three foot long multiple scratches from side-swiping sharp rocks jutting from a stone wall. The two-step touch up process produced an outstanding result. The color match was perfect and it is impossible to tel…

Buen acabado

Esta bien el producto para tapar alguna raya pequeña, el color está muy logrado y es idéntico al original del coche. Lo recomiendo, pero no sustituye el llevarlo al taller a que lo pinten, como apaño bien está.

How it works

Three steps.
Zero blobs.

01

Clean

Wipe the chip, degrease the panel. Thirty seconds of prep is all it takes.

02

Apply

The precision tip fills the chip exactly — no drips, no brush marks, no blobs.

03

Ready

Seal and polish. The repair disappears into the factory finish.
