PPG announces Jet Black factory package topcoat

June 9, 2021
The pre-mixed topcoat features vertical stability on rivets and sharp edges and can be used as a direct gloss or basecoat color.

PPG announced the launch of PPG Delfleet Essential Jet Black factory package topcoat, No. ESSS979392, which helps commercial repair facilities save time, improve productivity and ensure consistent color matches, the company says.

“This new premixed Jet Black topcoat offers the convenience of not having to mix the paint and further ensures color consistency from job to job,” said Scott Colvin, PPG brand manager, fleet segments, commercial coatings, U.S. and Canada. “It offers our customers the opportunity to deliver a rich, deep black appearance while streamlining their paint process, thereby increasing profitability.”

The new Jet Black color joins four other colors currently in the PPG Defleet Essential factory package lineup: GM50 Olympic White, White, Black, and Flat Black. Each pre-mixed topcoat has volatile organic compound (VOC) rating of 2.8 pounds per gallon and features excellent vertical stability on rivets and sharp edges and can be used as a direct gloss or basecoat color.
