DEVELOPMENT OF THE SYSTEM
Each and every
custom product in the House Of Kolor range has been developed and manufactured
by House Of Kolor. And that's why you won't see these high-calibre products
anywhere else, under any other name.
Custom paint finishes aren't just about colour. Our products are designed to work together as a total system - from primers to top coats and each of our custom formulas has its own unique niche in the custom painting process. For this reason, we do not recommend the intermixing of other manufacturers products.
You can rely on House Of Kolor products for your projects, from start to finish.
STREET & SHOW PAINT JOBS
Most custom paint finishes will fall into one of the following categories:
- Special Effect Overlays
- Bare Metal Resprays
Special Effect Overlays
This is a great way to create a unique paint job without blowing
the budget, making it perfect for street cars. House Of Kolor products
enable you to use an existing paint finish as the base for an exciting
new colour scheme. This saves the time and expense of painting the engine
bay, boot and doorjambs, etc.
Clever design work and creative use of colour can add a special effect to just a few sections or transform the whole car - especially if a new body kit and wheels are being added.
A special effect overlay should only be used over new or good condition paint and bodywork. Expect pricing to range between $4,000 to $6,000 complete. Paint cost represents 25% - 30% of the total job.
Bare Metal Respray
This is the real deal. If you're looking to completely change
the colour of a car or you are aiming for a "showcar" quality
paint job, a bare metal respray is the way to go.
Design and colour options are literally endless for a bare metal respray, but it's important to realise at the outset of the project that a painter's skill plays an enormous role in the outcome. You should also remember that high quality custom resprays will always be expensive and that the price of House Of Kolor paint is often not much more than many other high quality smash repair/refinish paints.
For street cars expect pricing to range between $6,000 to $12,000 depending on extent of bodywork repairs and detail required. And if you are building a full on show car with extensive bodywork or customising it won't be hard to spend at least $15,000 and upwards.
THE KOOLEST KOLORS ON THE PLANET
Unique, top quality custom paints with sharp, vivid colours - the House Of Kolor trademark. There are plenty of pretenders but only House Of Kolor is the real thing.

our Kosmic Kandy's and can also be intermixed for unlimited custom colours.

and sensational effect in sunlight. Very high degree of painter skill
required and suitable for bare metal resprays of showcar level.

can be added to any of our clears for absolutely eye-catching artwork.
Flakes (F & UMF)
House Of Kolor flakes are the best money can buy. They are
ultra-thin, easier to smooth out and have tremendous sparkle. Kameleon
Kolor change Flakes are holographic and change colours when viewed from
different angles. Available in many colours.
Marblizers (MB)
Available in six outstanding colours, this unique base coat
creates a wide range of effects, like deep marble appearance, or a snakeskin
look. And now we have Neutral Marblizer, which is clear and can be added
to any of our dry pearls or flakes for even more custom effects.
THE BEGINNING AND THE END
Surface Prep Products
- Kwikure Epoxy Primer (KP2)
- Ko-Seal II Primer Sealer (KS)
- Adhereto (AP)
- Wax & Grease Remover (KC10)
- Post Sanding Cleaner (KC20)
The first step toward a long-lasting finish. It's essential to use a primer, sealer and sometimes an adhesion promoter that's designed specifically for custom painting to avoid common problems like filler bleed, shrinkage, sinkback, etc.
Clearcoats
- Polyurethane Flo-Klear (UFC)
- Kosmic Klear (UC)
- Intercoat Clear (SG)
A choice of clears with unparalleled performance. Our Flo-Klear features excellent "flow out" for better distinctness of image and ultra wet gloss. It's also very polishable and stone chip resistant. Kosmic Klear is crack proof and resists fuel spills. Intercoat Clear is designed as a protective clear for artwork tape outs on base coats and a number of other advanced custom painting tips.
FINISHING WITH A SHOW CAR SHINE!
Whether it's a sensational custom paint job or a quality standard finish, make sure you finish off with a Meguiar's show car shine. Meguiar's Compounds, Polishes, Waxes and Buff Pads are the choice of many of Australia's top bodyshops.
And it's not only the top bodyshop owners who specify Meguiar's, many of the world's leading car makers work with Meguiar's on paint correction issues at their assembly plants and at the dealership level.
