US Colournet CD closure - in June
9 May, 2012
This note is to remind you of the amalgamation of our colour formulas on to a single CD, eliminating the need for US ColorNet. As advised late last year, US ColorNet has now become obsolete, and will be disconnected in June this year.
We have now been able to incorporate colour-formulas for US-origin products into the same CD as other DPR products such as Centari, and there will be no further need for separate access to US ColorNet to retrieve colour formulas.
If you have any questions about this change, please don’t hesitate to contact Laura, Mel or Sandra in our Colour Service department.

Description GMC Size AM756 1L Blue Green Pearl 1250005590 1L AM58 1L Deep Maroon Tint 1250003107 1L DuPont Refinish: Introduction of 1051R & 1057R High Productive Surfacer
6 March, 2012
We are pleased to announce the introduction of 1051R & 1057R High Productive Surfacer in white and black,
which now provides the refinisher the ability to shade according to the full ValueShade® range. Please refer to the below Technical Data Sheet for the full list of value shade mixing ratios.
The characteristics of 1051R & 1057R are identical to the previous 1052R & 1056R High Productive Surfacers.
The ValueShade®system
Developed by DuPont Refinish after discovering how well undercoats can improve topcoats performance. Different shades of grey fit to the different topcoat colours. One of those shades will work perfectly beneath the topcoat you are using. (On our Colour Retrieval tools you can find the ValueShade® you need virtually instantly). Better profitability through lower paint consumption and less worktime. That’s the ValueShade® advantage.DuPont Performance Services: Upcoming DPS Education Courses
