Nippon Paint Automotive System - Paint coating expertise on your prized rides
08 Oct 2013|18,035 views
Car lovers know how much paintwork means to their cars. There is little running away that aesthetics play a huge part in giving a good first impression, and the condition of the paintwork is one of the major determining factors.
Automotive Paint 101
The basic car paint consists of several layers of coating, starting from the primer, to the base coat and ending with a clear coat. Each of these layers plays a significant role in giving the paintwork its desirable visual properties and colour effects.
However, with constant exposure to natural weathering elements such as sunlight, heat, and rain, the car's paintwork is due to lose its shine over time. Inadequate care, such as wrong application of cleaning chemicals, may also cause the paintwork to peel and lose its shine faster.
Many motorists, hence, sought ways to retain the showroom shine in their car's paintwork, such as polishing and paint protection. But these processes can only take effect if the car’s paintwork is still repairable.
Under circumstances where the bodywork is badly scratched or requires panel repair, a total re-spray of the new panel or even the entire bodywork may be required.
The conventional method is to drive to a trusted aftermarket workshop that offers the best match to your budget. Most motorists, however, do not pay great attention to the intricacy of the brand or quality of paint applied.
But as with various other aftermarket accessories, the quality of the product can directly affect the end result of the modification and hence, the overall appeal.
Recently, Nippon Paint Singapore has ventured into the automotive paint segment with a comprehensive lineup of products. The company was best known for its architectural coating products. Local audiences will also have remembered the paint specialist for its iconic representative - the Japanese Sumo.
Indeed, Nippon Paint has established a strong base in Singapore with its innovative range of coating products, taking up a substantial 62 percent of the local market share. Although less heard of, the company also has a strong footing in the shipping industry, particularly in the shipping and protective coating industry.
Now, the company has extended its paint coating expertise to the automotive field. This is least surprising, as Nippon Paint has been supplying OEM paint products to many car brands in Japan, such as Toyota and Honda.
Fulfilling a holistic approach to paint coating
To fulfil a holistic approach to paint coating, automotive paint refurbishing is the rightful next step the company has to undertake.
The automotive paint arm was initialised with an R&D base in Japan. Next, the company brought the technology to Thailand, which also saw the completion of testing and formulation of the automotive paint products to the climatic requirements of South East Asia.
These products have been tested and proven in multiple countries like China, Malaysia, and Thailand, and were very well received by the local consumers. Singapore is the next stop for the launch of the new product range.
Dubbed the Nippon Paint Automotive System, it consists of a wide span of automotive coating products to suit different needs and budget. Three tiers are available locally - the Nax Premila 9600, Nax Premila 9800 HP Velocity, and the top-of-range Nax Crystal 9905.
Patented CyGLAZ technology
What's worth mentioning is the range-topping Nax Crystal 9905. The flagship product is the only one within the range to come with the firm's patented CyGLAZ technology, which gives the paintwork outstanding resilience against natural and man-made elements.
CyGLAZ is a specially formulated resin compound that has been added to the clear coat of the paintwork, which makes it resistant to scratch, improves chemical resistance, and maintain long lasting shine. The Nax Crystal 9905 is also the only product in the market to boast such qualities.
To ensure the continuity of the product quality, Nippon Paint has selected a number of workshops to carry out the application process. These workshops are carefully chosen, with special trainings given to the painters to obtain the best results.
