Auto Color Library

The Auto Color Library

TCP Global's Auto Color Library is the world's largest online auto paint color reference library. The Auto Color Library slogan "Where yesterday's colors come alive today" is true. The library contains the actual automotive paint color standard reference chips for nearly all makes and models since automobiles were made, all the way back to the year 1900 and up to current models. There are even color references back to the 1880s, the days of Coach and Carriages. The ACL contains extremely rare color references for imported cars, makes, and models all the way back to the 1930s. If you need to restore any vintage or classic vehicle, this is the place to find the original OEM colors and purchase the coating needed to complete your restoration project.

The Room

The Auto Color Library Room at TCP Global's facility in San Diego has the world's history of automotive paint color standards organized, indexed, and archived like a library or museum. The room takes you through the history of color along with authentic collectibles and nostalgia pieces from the auto paint industry — old original paint cans, Ditzler Mixing Equipment, and Devilbiss Spray Guns from the turn of the century. The vast information within the Auto Color Library is the product of over 46 years of collecting color data from paint manufacturers, retired paint sales representatives, travels throughout the U.S., Canada, and Europe, and scouring auto swap meets. Visit autocolorlibrary.com and follow the simple instructions to look up any color information you need.
