Subject: PAINT CODE RELEASE UPDATE INFORMATION
Model and Year: 1984 Corvette
Source: Chevrolet Service Bulletin
Bulletin Number: 83-I-84 - (09/06/1983)
The 1984 Corvette features the same acrylic enamel paint that has been used since the 19811/2 model. The only change for 1984 is that a clear coat is being applied to both, metallic and solid colors, where as it had been used only on metallic colors since 1982.
Repair procedures for solid and metallic colors on the 1984 Corvette remain as published in Bulletin 82-I-23, November, 1981.
NOTICE: The use of abrasive polishing compounds on the front and rear fascias have been found to be detrimental to the finish on these materials and are not to be used. The use of abrasive polishing compounds results in a dulling effect.
The following chart illustrates the 1984 Corvette exterior color selection.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
