Norcross, Ga.--Akzo Nobel has received approval by Ford Motor Co. for use of its Sikkens Colorbuild Plus. The product line is a multifunctional undercoat system that can be used for both sanding and non-sanding applications. It can also be applied directly to metal, plastics, and OEM-coated panels with exceptional color-matching capabilities.
"Sikkens Colorbuild was the first true color primer system on the market," said Akzo Nobel Director of Marketing Tim Loden.
"Colorbuild Plus takes that innovation to a new level. It has maximum flexibility, minimizes waste and is fully VOC-compliant for both sanding and non-sanding applications."
Gerry Bonanni, paint and body technical engineer for Ford Motor Co., said, "The Sikkens Colorbuild Plus product line has been tested and has passed the rigorous paint performance specifications set by Ford Motor Co. The use of Ford-approved paint products is required for warranty repair on Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles and is highly recommended for other repairs."
"This is great news," Loden said. "Now collision repair centers working on Ford products can benefit from the improved application and performance features of Colorbuild Plus while maintaining the high-quality standards demanded by Ford Motor Co."
