Restore Your 1997 Cadillac Catera Finish In Two Steps

Select Your Cadillac's Color (Step One)

AutomotiveTouchup paint products are custom mixed to perfectly match the color of your 1997 Cadillac Catera using a basecoat/clearcoat system just like factory specs. To insure a proper match, you’ll need to know your vehicle’s color code, so you can find it on the chart below. The color code will be located on a sticker named Parts Identification. The code can start with BC/CC followed by a U, or a WA with a four digit number/letter combination. We use the WA format for simplicity, your code may have a U. WA8555 is the same as U8555.

Why The Two-Step Paint System?

Your 1997 Cadillac Catera is painted at the factory with a high quality basecoat/clearcoat system. This two-step paint system consists of step one, the basecoat, which is your car’s actual color, and step two, the clearcoat, the specially formulated clear paint that protects the base color and provides the luster and deep shine your vehicle came with when new. AutomotiveTouchup products faithfully reproduce your vehicle manufacturer’s basecoat/clearcoat system.

Here's what our customers are saying about our Touch Up Paint:

James P, owner of a 1998 Cadillac Eldorado from Palatine, IL

After not finding the paint code, I called AutomotiveTouchup and they told me to call the dealer with the vin and I received the proper color code. It seems that my 1998 was painted with a 97 color. It matches really good though, much better than the duplicolor that I used to use. I now know where to buy touchup and also 2 part primer which adheres better than regular spray primer.

Roger S, owner of a 1998 Cadillac Eldorado from Buffalo Grove, IL

Color match was GREAT!! Considering this is a 16 year old car I was VERY happy with the color match and ease of use.
