Aston Martin car color codes

The paints offered on these bodies by the English manufacturer can be formulated according to well-established recipes based on a mixture of mother-of-pearl, aluminum and automotive tint pigments with high UV resistance.
Although these vehicles often exceed 100,000 euros on purchase, the paintwork is of the same composition as the other cars of course. The system for painting these vehicles is the classic automotive paint system, that is to say : a primer often gray in color, followed by a paint called a two-coat paint, followed by a clearcoat.

The system is made up of these three steps which form the preparatory coats, followed by the color coat (Aston Martin code), followed by the protective and clear top coat (any quality mark).
A little body painting advice : it is always advisable to work with the wet-on-wet technique: that is to say, superimpose the layers of paint as long as they are not yet dry (within 30min).

The prestigious brand has produced unique vehicles since the 1950s, which have both distinguished themselves on motor racing tracks, but also which have stood out spectacularly in terms of curves and body design ! Who remembers the DB3s, an extremely rare sports version of the DB3, whose Aston Martin green color code was extraordinarily ahead of its time! In 1953, color was a true masterpiece.

The history of the manufacturer ASTON MARTIN

The history of Aston Martin began in 1910 with the creation of its first model, which saw the light of day in 1913. The brand was in fierce competition with its rival Bugatti. Each instructor tried to reach the highest levels of speed, which at the time peaked at extreme speeds of 115 km/hour. The Aston Martin brand won a world speed and endurance record in 1925. During the war period and twenty years after, the English firm had a bad time and was bought and then merged.
Success came in 1959 with the release of the first DBR models. These are racing cars that will make the company famous. The company will be in turn bought by Americans or Greek investors until the 2020s, when it is now owned by Kuwaiti investment funds.
