House of Kolor by Valspar announced the spring launch of eight new products, including four limited-edition colors that debuted at the SEMA Show 2015 in Las Vegas. The limited-edition colors – Black Forest, Blue By-You, Blood Orange and Righteous Rojo – are available as a factory pack for a limited time. They are also available to be mixed in the Shimrin2 Intermix System.

“What’s fun about these colors is that you can easily get the look and depth of a kandy with the ease of applying a basecoat clearcoat,” said Jon Kosmoski, founder of House of Kolor. “These four uniquely crafted limited edition colors will provide you with the look of a custom color in no time.”

House of Kolor has also released a new urethane flat clear (FC21.001), a low-VOC, flat finish clearcoat that can be used over all solvent-based basecoats. The clear sprays easily, dries quickly and is mixed with the new KUF21.HP1 catalyst. The new Urethane Rocket Klear (URC01.Q01) is ideal for those small pieces that need to look show-ready in quick time. URC01 does not require any flash time between coats.

House of Kolor also introduced a new sprayable primer (SP1600.G01), a premium, low-VOC, high-build polyester primer surfacer that provides adhesion to fiberglass and primed surfaces such as aluminum and steel.

“From the trend-setting limited-edition kolors to the incredible clears, these products have something for everyone,” said Gina Mahan, House of Kolor brand manager. “We take pride in offering products to better serve our customers through advancements in color and technology, and the products in the spring 2016 launch are no exception.”

The products are available immediately and comply with the U.S. National Volatile Organic Compound Emission Standard for Automobile Refinish Coatings.
