PPG announced the launch of the PPG AEROVIEW virtual aircraft painter, a digital tool designed to help business and general aviation customers explore and customize aircraft paint colors with precision and ease. This web-based tool provides an interactive platform where users can select from a variety of aircraft models and digitally apply colors from PPG’s comprehensive aerospace color library to visualize custom paint schemes in real time.

PPG Aeroview virtual aircraft painter is designed to increase the visibility and accessibility of PPG’s aerospace coatings, particularly for business and general aviation markets. The tool provides a digital alternative to traditional physical color brochures and enables 3D rendering in real time. It is currently available for U.S. aerospace coatings products only.

Lirong Bao, PPG global platform director, Aerospace Coatings commented: “The PPG Aeroview virtual aircraft painter is a sophisticated, easy-to-use solution for designers, fleet managers, maintenance planners and aviation enthusiasts to visualize and select aircraft coatings with confidence. By allowing users to digitally customize paint schemes on specific aircraft models, this tool helps reduce design uncertainty, minimize costly repaint errors and accelerate project approvals.”

Key benefits of the PPG Aeroview virtual aircraft painter include:

  • Reduced need for physical color books
  • Creative support with hundreds of color and finish combinations
  • Enhanced customer experience through an intuitive, web-based interface
  • Ability to select aircraft models and digitally apply colors and finishes for realistic previews
  • Capability to save, share and archive designs for future reference and maintenance planning
  • Integration with PPG LIVERYLAB™ studio, a service that assists customers with livery design projects
