I made the mistake of not parking far enough away from other cars. Got a scratch in my paint today. And learned how to find the Codes for my Trail Boss. These are no longer found on a Sticker in the glove box.
You have to Read the QR code on a sticker inside the driver's door. BUT ... of course the Paint Code is not found there! Ha, ha! In fact, I cannot find where the Paint Code is indicated in or on the vehicle itself anywhere. Other resources must be used. Eventually I found that the GM color "Red Hot" is not the only name, and it may not be the actual, Official name of the paint color.
No, no; THAT is apparently "Pull Me Over Red" which has the paint code G7C. Which once found is also the paint code for "Red Hot." Then I ordered a touchup kit. In the past I have used TouchUpDirect. There is also TouchUpZone, and others I suppose. This time I ordered from AutomotiveTouchup. They mix the paint only right before ordering. And they are the least expensive. We'll see. I might still order from another source. All have some sort of Clear Coat as well.
