Professional-Grade Refinishing Products Since 1948
SEM Products has been revolutionizing the automotive refinishing industry for more than 75 years. Founded by George Sneckner and William (Bill) Elliott, Sneckner Elliot Manufacturing (SEM) opened its doors in Belmont, California to deliver high quality residential paints. The company quickly evolved to become a pioneer in automotive, aerospace, marine, and industrial coatings, earning a reputation for engineering products that reduce repair time, minimize steps, and eliminate waste.
What sets SEM apart is their commitment to innovation that solves real-world problems. SEM enters automotive aftermarket with Topper, the first flexible coating for restoring or changing the color of vinyl car tops. This breakthrough launched a series of industry-first products that would define modern refinishing standards. Today, SEM Products moves to a new location in Rock Hill, SC bringing the whole team under one roof. This integrated approach allows complete control over product development, manufacturing, and quality assurance.
Comprehensive Coating Solutions
SEM's extensive product line covers every phase of automotive refinishing. Their spray paint offerings include everything from custom candy colors to trim restoration formulas, delivering professional results in convenient aerosol formats. For interior restoration work, SEM's interior paint products like Color Coat and Sure-Coat have become industry standards for refinishing vinyl, leather, plastic, and fabric surfaces. When it comes to surface preparation, SEM's primers include high-build surfacers, flexible primers, and their innovative Ez Coat system that replicates OEM e-coat finishes.

SEM obtains 53 OEM recommendations covering 221 products.

This extensive OEM approval demonstrates the trust professional collision centers and body shops place in SEM's engineering.
