Is W20A8529 the same as 79T?
- Manufacturer code
W20A8529Usually the one on your car’s label - Standard number
79T
A single factory colour is often recorded under more than one code: the manufacturer’s own code, an industry standard number, and a supplier code. They all mix to the same paint. The code printed on your vehicle’s paint label is the one to match.

Which Chevrolet models came in Dark Red Metallic (W20A8529)?
This colour is recorded at brand level — Chevrolet did not tie it to specific models in our data. Match it by the paint code on your vehicle’s label.
Will W20A8529 match my Chevrolet if the paint has faded?
The kit is mixed to the W20A8529 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.

When it comes to quality auto paint protection and correction Color N Drive is hands down the best
Amazon review
Great Product, Unfortunately Off Color
The product itself was of superb quality, and I think it would work wonders for more common colors such as white, red, black, etc... My car was a 2018 Chevy Cruze Kinetic Blue, so the color from the touch up was slightly…
Amazon review
Great product
Matches perfectly to my 2005 Chevy equinox. Would recommend
How it worksThree steps.
Three steps.
Zero blobs.
01Clean
Wipe the chip, degrease the panel. Thirty seconds of prep is all it takes.
02Apply
The precision tip fills the chip exactly — no drips, no brush marks, no blobs.
03Ready
Seal and polish. The repair disappears into the factory finish.
