  BASF coatings are used to provide the finest, most durable finishes

  More than 50% of global annual car production has at least one layer of BASF paint.

  From the factory assembly line to the collision repair facility, BASF coatings are used to provide the finest, most durable finishes. That’s why BASF Refinish coatings have more OEM approvals than any other refinish paint brand, and that’s why BASF is the best answer to getting your shop certified for repairing OEM vehicles. BASF refinish products are approved for over 99% of cars on the roads in North America.

  Premiere automotive manufacturers Bentley and Rolls Royce want no other refinish paint used for repairs than the world-class Glasurit brand, which holds exclusive approvals.
