Spies Hecker has introduced Permasolid Clear Coat Color Additive 9051 a product that enables bodyshops to repair the latest orange trend colours.

Orange is a colour that is rarely seen on vehicles, but with today’s new deep luminosity, it is seeing a surge in interest. This means that bodyshops may need to tackle a paint repair on, for example, the new Renault colour Valencia Orange (EQB), which stands out with its special coloured clear coat. This is made much easier with this new colour additive.

At the International Motor Show (IAA) in September in Frankfurt, many car manufacturers presented new electric and hybrid cars in rich, bright orange shades. Joachim Hinz, Spies Hecker Brand Manager for Europe comments, "Orange is on the rise, especially for electric and hybrid cars and with the new Permasolid Clear Coat Color Additive 9051, our bodyshops are well prepared to repair the shade."

The colour formula for Renault Valencia Orange (EQB), including the new Permasolid Clear Coat Color Additive 9051, is now available in the Spies Hecker Phoenix colour software.
