Matching paint??? HELP

What paint lines did you work with? Axalta owns Spies Hecker and bought Dupont so they have a huge share in the automotive coatings. They purchased Spies Hecker for their technology as they were a great German company with awesome paint lines. One of my favorite to use. Apparently the Dupont line wasn't as good so they are now very similar. They also own Imron, Nason, Standox which are huge in the fleet industry.

This is the Akzo Nobel camera they supply with all of their lines as well.

I worked for the largest chemical company in the world. They are a fortune 100 company. I compared Axalta's 2020 sales against the paint sales of my former employer and there was a significant difference. I hope this answers your question. Like I said, I know very little about Axalta and I've been out of the OE paint game for quite a few years. I paint now as a hobby and mostly on my own stuff.

I'm not on this forum to promote any one paint company. I'm here to help and lend some guidance to refinishing. In my career I have trained paint trainers, customer paint technicians, individuals who wanted to learn and a few paint lab people in manual and automated systems.
