The process
The main objectives of the Paint Division are to provide vehicles with a high gloss, attractive, colourful finish, with a long term durable resistance to corrosion.
Honda completely immerses the car bodies in powerful chemicals to prepare the steel for painting. Following this, corrosion proof paint is applied to every metal surface both inside and out. All of the panel joints are sealed to guarantee they are watertight before the final colour paint layers are applied, utilising state of the art robots.
Whilst the car bodies are being painted, the Plastic Operations Department are moulding and painting bumpers and other smaller components which will all be brought together for installation on the final assembly line.
