Standox has updated and expanded its on-line colour information for historic and classic cars with the colour codes of 23 additional car marques added.

The classic colour documentation from Standox allows vintage car enthusiasts to get an online representation of what their favourite classic car looked like in its original colour. To achieve this, Standox has digitised its information on historic vehicle colours.

Jodie Henly, Standox Brand Specialist says, “The colour formulation of these classic colours can be accessed through three channels, via the online colour search at www.standox.com, using the Standowin colour search software, or through the Standox Colour Line. This valuable information enables professional refinishers to get the most precise colour matches when repairing precious collectors’ vehicles.” 

New additions to the documentation include the original colours of the Innocenti Mini produced from the mid-1960s. The extended classic colour documentation also contains for the first time colour codes of non-European vintage cars. In addition to Moskvitch and Lada from the former Soviet Union, ten Asian car manufacturers, from Daihatsu to Toyota, also feature in the revised information.

In total, colour codes from over 40 international car brands, from Alfa Romeo to Volvo, are available exactly as they were offered at the time. The classic colour documentation from Standox not only gives users an idea of what a vintage or classic car might have looked like with its original paintwork, but also what other colours were available at that time

Standox also offer other assistance to classic vehicle refinishers and restorers such as a useful Standothek guide called Prestige and Classic Cars, which gives detailed information on how to care for and repair vintage cars.
