Hi

Is there any plans within Holden in the future, wether it be for the up and coming VE or other models for the following in regards to painting and painting techniques of the following:-

1.) Will Holden clear coat base colours/non metalic colours?
2.) Will Holden be reviewing and/or updating painting techniques for Commodores?

My questions come from a professional basis working often on non metalic base coloured Commodores. I find them very soft to work with, and due to this fact mark/scratch a lot easier than clear coated metalic cars.

Also is it possible to find out what quaility control Commodores must pass through when they have been painted and are in the finished product stage?

I ask these questions as stated above already for professional reasons, and also due to the nature of my work I receive lots of negative feedback from Commodore owners on the painting process of their cars from the factory and simply would like to know if this is one area Holden might consider looking at for future development if they are not already?

Kind regards.

I always thought the VYII and onwards had a clear coat on their redhot. I must have been wrong
