Does Honda use PPG paint?

Yes, Honda does use PPG coatings, among other suppliers, as part of its global automotive supply chain, though Honda does not use a single paint supplier exclusively. PPG is one of the largest suppliers of automotive original equipment manufacturer coatings in the world and supplies electrocoat, primer, basecoat, and clearcoat systems to many automakers including General Motors, Ford, Toyota, BMW, and Honda for various plants around the world. In Honda's case, PPG has been a supplier for many years for facilities in North America, particularly for its plants in Ohio, Indiana, and Alabama, where PPG provides waterborne and solventborne coating systems that meet Honda's durability, color, and environmental requirements. Automotive OEM supply contracts are typically plant-specific and model-specific, so a Honda Accord built in Marysville, Ohio might use PPG coatings while a Honda Civic built in another region might use Axalta, BASF, or Kansai Paint. PPG also supplies Honda with pretreatment chemicals, adhesives, and sealants. Beyond new car production, PPG supplies Honda-approved coatings for automotive refinish and body shop repairs through its Deltron and Envirobase refinish brands. The relationship is that of a Tier 1 supplier rather than exclusive branding, which is standard in the auto industry.
