Hi

I have asked this question on another forum, but I will ask it here also. Hopefully someone knows the answer.

Does anyone know the paint code for the the silver colour used on the VX/VU SS alloys? I presume it will be the same for other models.

Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Cheers

Bazza

Hi Bazza.

The only Commodore alloy wheel colours I have listed for that era are:-

Opel Silver - 4H023 &
Light Grey - 3H013

Platinum Silver 4J025 is a common wheel silver for GMH stuff, majority of painted wheels for all manufacturers typically use a straight metallic toner, best option is to take a spare wheel to a paint supplier to match. It's been a long time since I've had to mix a specific formula for a silver wheel of any sort, usually all thats required is to make sure to match the right type of metallic.

Hi tail light

I would be interested to find out the correct code. In the meantime I have done some touch-ups with a VHT wheel product called "Chevrolet Rally Silver".
I have found that it is as near to the real colour as "damn" is to swearing.

Thanks and cheers

Bazza
