Usually its on the inside of the door there is a label with code numbers. If not its in your glove box.How do you find out the paint color in a car??? and what paint gloss should i use?
The';paint code'; location is different from model to model. GM full size cars are in the trunk over the spare tire cover, it wi called a WA no. Fords are in the drivers side door jam. GM trucks are in the glove box, GM's with bucket seats and a center console are in the center glove box. Honda's are in the door jam. If you are uncertain, contact your local auto body and paint supplier. They have a catalog that gives the location of every car ever made. By the way, older cars used to have the code somewhere under the hood.How do you find out the paint color in a car??? and what paint gloss should i use?
It's usually located in one of the door jams (driver or passenger). It should be specific to the make of your car. Try looking there and looking for the color on the internet to find touch up paint or whatever you would need.
look for the color code on the side of your drivers car door jamb.
