BACK TO HISTORY
The history of automotive paint dates back to just after the turn of the century.
It is true that the process of coating metal, wood and stone surfaces dates back much further.
However, we have to acknowledge that a true vehicle related coating began about 1900.
It came of age about 1910, roughly 6 years after Henry Ford founded Ford Motor Company.
These coatings were products from the "varnish" category.
Most were a carry over from the horse and buggy days.
Much like old wood coatings, they were brushed on the surface and allowed to dry.
The coating was then sanded smooth and refinished in the same manner.
When a desired thickness was achieved the surface was polished.
In many cases the process of painting a car took as long as 40 days.
These products were not colorful. Remember, Henry always said,
Now when more than hundred years are passed, the evaluation of car refinish is unbelievable changed from just black paint to more than 200 000 different shade colors that can make magic with your eyes, from strong chameleon paints where you can see in color more than four different shades of colors. In Glasurit color box of real painted samples are more than 7000 samples. And so of this paint changes, the system how you should apply the paint is become much faster and even much easier, with technologies which has been given to us, we become more professional, faster and reliable to our customers.
"You can have a car any color you like as long as it is “black.’”
This system was used until the mid 1920’s.
