PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad - July 10, 2023 - Automotive Art Paints, a leader in the manufacturing and distribution of automotive refinish systems, is pleased to announce a brand-new distribution agreement with Massy Motors, a leading automotive dealership in Trinidad and Tobago. This partnership marks a significant expansion of Automotive Art Paints' presence in the Caribbean region.

When a full-service auto restoration shop has a well-established, word-of-mouth reputation like that of Mongoose Motorsports in Ravenna, OH, it can be a hard sell to get them to consider switching products.

Have you ever heard of vantablack?

Vantablack is the darkest substance ever made, but it’s not a color—it’s a material. It was created to help extinguish stray light reflected off telescopes and satellites to increase their clarity. It’s not even a paint; it’s a series of vertically aligned nanotube arrays (hence, VANTA). It absorbs over 99 percent of visible light, and, in real-world applications, resembles one of those escape holes that Wile E. Coyote might lay before the Roadrunner in old Warner Bros. cartoons.

In other words, it looks unreal. Objects coated in vantablack resemble a poor Photoshop edit of the known world. Look it up—how much more black could it be? None.

But vantablack is real. And if anything could read it, it’s the ADAM5 spectrophotometer.

After leaving the SEMA 2017 show full of inspiration, we suddenly developed the urge to build a project car of our own to enter into the SEMA Battle of the Builders competition.  

Then we found her, a classic 1958 Chevy Corvette, Vintage Number 20. Battered, bruised and ready for a complete makeover.

The Automotive Art team, together with our distributor for Guatemala, Importadora de Acabados & Colores S.A., launched the Automotive Art Refinish System into the Guatemalan market during the first week of December, 2015.

Throughout the week-long launch, Sales Manager for Latin America, Lenny Morell, was on-hand to facilitate the introduction of our signature 80-Line Motobase Paint System. He also hosted thorough training clinics and product demonstrations for several bodyshops

In addition to the body shop training clinics, a full refinish training course was conducted for our distributor’s store managers, color technicians and sales and technical representatives; giving them skills and tools to grow the brand in Guatemala. The paint line, plus many ancillary products such as primers, fillers and top clears were also demonstrated to illustrate the proper application of our products. This also gave us the chance to show the high quality results our products deliver in the bodyshop.

Both customers and our distributor’s team were extremely satisfied with the demonstrations and training, and were particularly impressed with the color matching of the paint line, which is supported by our state-of-the-art color tools and color matching software. Technicians were also very impressed with the superior quality and performance of the product line, all complimented by pricing that delivered impressive value to the bodyshop.

At Automotive Art we believe in being a leading force of innovation and change in the refinish industry by being unconventional, and offering unique solutions to our customers. We achieve this by putting customers at the centre of what we do, all supported by our passion for excellence, flexibility in mindset, integrity in how business is conducted and commitment to delivering results. Our brands are now sold in over sixty-five countries worldwide.
