Classic Car Restoration · 25+ Years

For the cars
worth saving.

Car Colour Services has served the Classic Car market for over 25 years, from proud owners starting a new project to world-class restoration companies who we serve daily.

A 1972 BRG should look like 1972 BRG. Not the closest modern equivalent.

The Mix Room Philosophy

Since 1990 · Romford, Essex

Classic Systems Stocked

Cellulose. Synthetic. 2K acrylic.
All on the shelf.

Cellulose-nitrate enamels disappeared from most paint factors twenty years ago. We never stopped stocking them.

01 / 06

Cellulose Paints

Authentic single-pack cellulose nitrate finishes. The period-correct choice for restoration.

02 / 06

Synthetic Enamels

Long-life single-pack enamels with deep gloss retention. Ideal for commercial and classic vehicles.

03 / 06

2K Acrylic Systems

Modern two-pack basecoats matched to vintage colour references for daily-driven classics.

04 / 06

Custom Mix Service

Bring us a panel, a chip or the manufacturer code. We will mix it on the bench — usually same-day.

05 / 06

Period-Correct Primer

Etch, zinc and high-build primers compatible with classic substrates including aluminium and lead-loaded steel.

06 / 06

Touch-Up Aerosols

Aerosols made-to-order in vintage colours for spot repairs without dropping the panel.

How It Works

From paint code
to collected tin.

01

Tell Us the Car

Make, model, year and any paint code or panel reference you have. A photograph helps.

02

We Source the Colour

Our mix room cross-references manufacturer archives and our own 35-year colour library.

03

Mix and Match

We mix to spec on the bench — single-pack cellulose, synthetic enamel, modern 2K acrylic, your choice.

04

You Collect or We Post

Walk into the shop or order online. Trade volumes available, aerosols posted next-day.
