Default Touch up paint
Just in case of, I am about to buy a touch paint applicator for my torch red GS.
I saw this one :
https://www.ebay.com/itm/2014-2018-C...53.m1438.l2649

Anyone knows it? Is it a good one?

Thanks

You want to be sure reference paint code and WA numbers match SPID label of your car

GM Service Parts iDentification label. It's a white sticker with a lot of 3 digit codes. It has the vin on it it kind of like a mini build sheet. It has all the option codes along with the WA number which identifies the paint for the car. Sometimes GM has multiple suppliers for the same color.

use www.paintref.com to verify paint codes for almost any brand vehicle and different paint brands. It's what I used when I ordered my touch up paint.

Yes. I was impatient and bought mine from the dealer. I'm sure I paid too much. But it's exactly the same as yours. Also Torch Red.
