GM WA8555 Black Basecoat With Reducer Gallon (Basecoat Only) Paint Kit

This GM WA8555 Black Basecoat With Reducer Gallon (Basecoat Only) Paint Kit includes the basecoat and reducer you need to lay down a smooth, even foundation before applying your clearcoat. Please note that this listing is for basecoat paint and reducer only — a clearcoat is required to complete the finish.

Auto Paint HQ’s OEM basecoat system uses advanced color-matching technology to deliver accurate OEM-style results with excellent coverage. The basecoat sprays smoothly, covers quickly, and mixes 1:1 with the included universal urethane reducer for a consistent, professional-grade application.

This product is intended for overall refinishing. Because various conditions can impact final color appearance, we cannot guarantee a precise color match for spot repairs or blending. If used for small repairs, please understand that no color-match claims are made.

Made in the USA.

What’s Included in the Gallon Kit

• One Gallon of Basecoat Color (GM WA8555 Black)

Selecting the Right Reducer Speed
