General Motors has approved the new 1100755 Elegance(tm) clearcoat from Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes (SWAF) on a global basis.

The clearcoat has undergone extensive certification to meet the GMW15406 standard that General Motors sets to assure that vehicles repaired at its dealerships use high-quality automotive refinish products. It is designed for force- dry/booth applications and is recommended for use on multi- panel repairs or overall finishing.

“We’re pleased that General Motors has recognized the Elegance clearcoat as a premium clearcoat solution,” said Jason Crager, SWAF OEM Business Development Manager. “Along with our HPC15 and HPC21 clear products, we believe Sherwin-Williams offers some of the fastest and highest quality clearcoats allowing collision centers to increase productivity and profitability while saving energy costs.
