Other common color promotional names include Black, Flat Black, Gray, Gunmetal, and Sash Black. The color formulation has been used between 1959 and 1988, primarily by Cadillac; but also by Buick, Chevrolet, GM, International Harvester, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac. We have records of this color appearing on the following models: Firebird, International Harvester Truck, Motor Home, and Nova. See the full detailed list below. The use of this paint is for main body, interior, trim, and special order color. Many interior paints where semi-gloss or flat versions of exterior colors. Lower gloss finishes could be created by adding a half ounce of Flattening Compound to a pint of the unreduced color. An unpolished version of the paint generally produced a semi-gloss finish for repair.
The longer GM paint manufacturing code, sometimes called the "Fisher paint code", is
