Daewoo Touch Up Paint
Saenara Motors was now controlling a brand new car factory and top of the line equipment that rendered the company very attractive to businesses that wanted to step into the automotive industry. The company most interested in Saenara proved to be Shinjin Industries who purchased it in 1965. They benefited from a new deal with Toyota to change the name of the company to Shinjin Motors. The deal concluded allowed Shinjin to assemble the Toyota Corona in the old Saenara plant with 20% of the parts made in Korea.
The next development in the company's history has more to do with politics than with car making. As of 1972, Toyota sold its shares in Shinjin to fulfill its goals to enter the Chinese market. The above mentioned prohibited any company from South Korean to enter its country so Toyota sold its stakes to GM. The result was a 50/50 joint venture between the American and Shinjin Motors that formed General Motors Korea. As a result of financial difficulties, the parts owned by Shinjin were sold in 1976 and the remaining company once again took a new name, Saehan Motors.
In 1982, the Deawoo Group took control of the Saehan Motors company from its current owner, the Korea Development Bank. This new business was now called Daewoo Motors Co. and until 1996, all the models it manufactured were in fact GM models. Around this time, the brand started an expansion throughout the world but it was not enough. The Asian crisis that hit the region in 1997 weakened the brand which forced all the brand's assets to be sold, yet again, to General Motors in 1999.

What tools do I need for a Daewoo touch up paint job?
To create the best looking coat for your vehicle, we recommend the following:
PRIMER, COLOR, AND CLEARCOAT - It goes without saying that you need paint to do a touch up paint job. Clearcoat provides a thin protective layer for your paint job while Primer is required for damage that has reached the original base material.
WAX AND GREASE REMOVER CLOTH - The wax and grease remover cloth is used to remove wax, grease, and contaminants before painting.
SANDPAPER - Wet-sanding the affected area removes rust and prepares the surface with a rough finish so the paint can stick better.
POLISHING COMPOUND - The polishing compound smooths everything out with a factory-grade finish.
These tools are all available with our Platinum kit but can be purchased separately on the TouchUpDirect website.
