OEM Approvals

What are OEM approvals?

Official endorsements from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that confirm a particular refinishing system or paint product has met their requirements and quality standards.

Once approved, the refinishing system or paint products are recommended to the dealer netowrk and become a "preferred choice" for use in collision repair and paint warranty work. In essence, approvals protect the customer's warranty because the system or products have already been pre-screened by the car manufacturer.

Why are approvals important?

In an industry inundated with new products, approvals provide peace-of-mind for the car manunfacturer, the refinisher and most of all, the car owner. They provide assurance that the paint manufacturer has an ongoing relationship with the car manufacturer whereby, specific products meet or exceed the car manufacturers requirements and test criteria for restoring a car to pre-accident condition.
