New throwback color part of Vibrance Collection finishes
PPG Automotive Refinish has added DITZLER Hot Rod Black topcoat to its popular VIBRANCE COLLECTION product line. The new PPG topcoat provides a uniform, low gloss and deep-looking black finish designed to replicate the glory days of street rods and muscle cars.
“It’s the perfect option for anyone wanting that retro road presence,” said Jennifer Boros, PPG segment manager, solvent borne brands. “Ditzler Hot Rod Black delivers a streetwise appearance in a product that’s easy to spray and is compliant for all regions.”
Although Ditzler Hot Rod Black was inspired by the iconic rides of yesteryear, this classic black, with its smooth satin finish, is the ideal complement to late-model builds as well. “You can have the best of both worlds,” Boros adds. “Contemporary performance and styling with old-school attitude.”
While Ditzler Hot Rod Black’s style is throwback, its two-component, single-stage technology is thoroughly modern. It is available in a convenient package—the HRB9700 Hot Rod Black kit that includes a quart of Hot Rod Black and a half pint of hardener. And it can be reduced with any PPG urethane reducer in an easy 4:1:1 mix ratio for spraying. As noted, this new topcoat is also VOC-compliant for all regions based on reducer selection. In addition, it can be air- or force-dried.
