NORCROSS, Ga. - Akzo Nobel has received approval by Ford Motor Company for use of its Sikkens Colorbuild Plus, a product line the company says is a multifunctional undercoat system that can be used for both sanding and non-sanding applications and can be applied directly to metal, plastics and OEM coated panels.

 “Sikkens Colorbuild was the first true color primer system on the market,” says Akzo Nobel’s 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.”

“The Sikkens Colorbuild Plus product line has been tested and has passed the rigorous paint performance specifications set by Ford Motor Company,” says Gerry Bonanni, paint and body technical engineer for Ford Motor Company, commented on the approval, “It will be a valuable support product to the excellent products offered by Akzo Nobel. 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.”
