PPG Launches Color Formula Program for Mobile Phones

PPG has introduced ColorMobile, a tool providing fast Internet access to all color formulas for domestic and import vehicle colors. ColorMobile is designed for repairers who work away from collision centers and need access to color formulations wherever they travel. To use ColorMobile, a password and a mobile device with access to the Internet are needed.

“We’re very excited to offer ColorMobile to our customers,” said Beth Ramsey, PPG global color marketing and communications manager. “It’s the ideal solution for vehicle refinishers who work on the road and otherwise would not have access to our color databases via their desktop computer. ColorMobile gives them instant 24/7 access to the information they need wherever they’re working. ColorMobile is a valuable and productive tool, and a key part of the PPG Color Retrieval System.”

Using ColorMobile, repairers are able to tap into the PPG or Nexa Autocolor Online Color Web sites. Color formulas are updated daily, and the database contains both National Rule and compliant/waterborne system information covering all manufacturer colors including both prime and variant formulations. In addition, since ColorMobile is designed specifically for mobile repairers, it offers the ability to mix in very small amounts – as little as one ounce – as needed.

To use ColorMobile, a repairer accesses the appropriate Web site URL and enters their approved password and e-mail address.
