About us

Fascinated by the ever growing popularity of personalizing vehicles through the manufacturers extended paints catalog with options and possibilities in some cases being seemingly endless, we've set out to document the rich world of automotive paint colors. From standard color palettes to extended ranges and special requests (commonly known as PTS, or Paint to Sample), we aim to catalog every available paint option offered by manufacturers.

Our goal is to provide a comprehensive record of automotive paint colors, including standard options, special requests, pricing, rarity, paint history, and more. Whether you're an enthusiast, collector, or simply curious, we aim to inform and educate on the full spectrum of automotive paint possibilities.

How it works

Each paint color is uploaded only once per vehicle. Our focus is to document the paints, not individual vehicles. However, we provide the option for users to contribute vehicle-specific information, such as chassis numbers, on the upload detail page. This helps us cross-reference cars and document their unique paint options via VIN, ensuring accurate information on rarity and availability.

Since we only upload each paint once, we encourage users to upload images of stock vehicles when possible. This allows us to compare cars in various colors like they left the factory, providing a clearer and more accurate representation of each paint option.

Technical info

Our website is custom-built from the ground up to meet our unique needs for documenting automotive paints, setting it apart from the average template-based websites which are limited in functionality. Developed entirely in-house to the highest standards, our platform allows us to adapt quickly and develop virtually any feature imaginable to keep up with the evolving world of automotive customization.
The website is receiving live updates and thereby continuously improving and expanding. Stay up-to-date with all the changes through our monthly update summaries.
