ALFA ROMEO car paint 

When you get back from shopping, you go to the parking lot with a big scratch on the door. Do not panic, you can repair the damage yourself by looking for the Italian car color codes on the specific locations of your vehicle.
Alfa Romeo colors are mainly pearl-based metallic colors, in the form of paint covered with clearcoat.

You can repair an Alfa Romeo color code, the process is quite simple and can be done at home, even without being a professional bodybuilder. First of all, it will be a question of ordering the paint in a specialized store or in an online store, capable of carrying out the formula of the Alfa Romeo color code.

Then, the two phases of the painting are carried out easily and quickly, with the first stage of the metallic base paint, in a few thin and repeated layers, until obtaining the coverage of the bottom, followed quickly by the layer of clearcoat, which provides shine and protection, both of the paint, the colors and the metal support of the bodywork, against corrosion, scratches and discoloration.

The car color codes of the ALFA ROMEO

The shades of the Italian brand are famous in particular for their deep reds.

It is sometimes difficult to find the vehicle plate where the paint references are engraved. When this plate is found in certain places on the bodywork, for example inside the bonnet (see the following paragraph on this subject), you can then find different series of numbers which can be confusing.
For to know the right reference that corresponds to the color of the original vehicle, you have to look at the format of the color code which usually consists of three to four alphanumeric characters.

Some Alfa Romeo color codes may be similar to color codes belonging to other brands. It is for this reason that a color code is always accompanied by a colorimetric designation, which takes the form of two to three words.
Example : 093A BORDEAUX
Thus, with this double system of color code followed by a color name, the entire international color classification system of the various car manufacturers makes it possible to organize both the choice of colors, and to avoid errors or confusion.

The history of the manufacturer ALFA ROMEO

The legendary Italian firm was born on June 24, 1910. Alpha is the Italian acronym for Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili.
Since its creation, the Italian manufacturer Alfa Romeo has been widely involved in motor racing. He participated in many legendary races and won many trophies. The Italian manufacturer has always shown a certain charisma and a very marked creative spirit, with vehicles with unique looks, which combine both aesthetics and cutting-edge mechanics. In 1910, a four-cylinder with a 4 Liter engine was produced. Of course, a far cry from today's modern vehicles, this big engine delivered 42 horsepower. However, this extraordinary vehicle for the time reached a speed of 100 km/h.
As with other car brands, it was after the Second World War that the explosion of the industry took place with the accessibility to the general public of the modern car. For the past 20 years, Alfa Romeo has built an image of a refined and sporty car, originating in a country specializing in high-performance cars.
