Efficiency is key says Nexa Autocolor

The key to a bodyshop’s success is repair process efficiency, and fundamental to successful repair is colour identification, throughout the process and up to the final application, according to leading paint brand Nexa Autocolor.

The Nexa Autocolor brand’s ability to match motor manufacturer colours is achieved through four key areas:

Outstanding Colour Match
Four dedicated colour laboratories across the world ensure all new Motor Manufacturer colours and variants are accurately matched. Strong working relationships with the Motor Manufacturers ensures early involvement in the design of a colour and at the production stages to identify any variants locally, accurately and quickly. In addition to this we have a team that visit car import centres across Europe check current matches against the cars in the car park to identify variants.

Accurate Production
All tinters are produced to a tight specification in state-of-the-art production facilities. Every batch is sprayed out and goes through a strict colour-check to ensure consistent colour reproduction.
Every colour chip produced at Nexa Autocolor is approved by an approved colour matcher. In addition every variant is checked against the pool of cars in the market.

Standardised Application Techniques
There is one recommended technique for each product line and these techniques are used through the complete supply chain from production, quality assessment, and colour match through to those used by Nexa Autocolor colour tool suppliers and Nexa Autocolor customers.

Industry-Leading Colour tools
Nexa Autocolor ecognises that correct colour identification hugely affects bodyshop performance and profitability. To this end, we is able to supply industry leading colour identification tools including
