GIA launches comprehensive analysis of industry segments, trends, growth drivers, market size, share and demand forecasts on the global Automotive Aftermarket Appearance Chemicals market. The global market for Automotive Aftermarket Appearance Chemicals is projected to reach US$5.1 billion by 2022, driven by rising average age of vehicle fleet, a parallel increase in maintenance expenditure, and undeterred customer focus on aesthetic appearance.  

The large global base of vehicle fleet is expected to benefit demand for automotive aftermarket appearance chemicals. The growth in the world's vehicle fleet can be put into perspective by the fact that the transportation industry currently accounts for over 50% of the world’s oil consumption, most of which is consumed in the form of motor fuel. Given that the vehicle fleet size is directly proportional to the population of a region, China and India which are already the most important automotive markets in the world, will emerge as strong markets for aftermarket products including appearance chemicals. The growth in the number of ‘Do-it-Yourself’ customers is benefiting demand for aftermarket appearance chemicals. The rise in the number of female DIYers is especially poised to support sales of waxing & polishing products, and Protectants. Also encouraging growth is the growing trend among aging baby boomers to restore their classic cars. The growing number of car wash centres, against a backdrop of a growing 'Do-It-For-Me' (DIFM) services market, will help drive sales of car shampoos and wheel cleaners. Financial austerity practiced by consumers is leading to a rise in demand for pre-owned cars and leased vehicles.

Popularity of pre-owned vehicles is especially high in the United States and Europe. Economic factors play an important role in the automotive market, and in turn on the automotive appearance chemicals market. Depending on the circumstances, economic factors play a key role in driving both the new car market as well as the used car market. Development of the new car market as well as the used car market bodes well for the automotive appearance chemicals market. New car sales tend to lead to increase in per capita consumption, while a vibrant used car market enables increased usage of automotive appearance chemicals.
