Back in 1986 when HQ Lacquer first came on the scene, one of the first markets we targeted was that of specialist automotive interiors. John Hennessey had learned his trade at Hooper Coachbuilders and then worked at Rolls Royce (Mulliner ParkWard) in NW London. With his skill and contacts, HQ Lacquer soon was restoring most of the Rolls Royce and Bentley woodwork in London.
HQ Lacquer then came to the notice of a company who were looking for a polyester lacquer specialist to help them supply Rover Car Group with high quality veneered components. Our involvement with Rover (owned by BMW at the time), as a second tier supplier, was our introduction to high volume, high quality production. We produced many thousands of top quality lacquered components for the Rover 800 and the last of the old Minis for many years.
HQ Lacquer was also asked to apply our polyester finish to the woodwork of all the prototype Bentley Continental GTs. When the Rolls Royce Phantom was introduced, we were involved with the finishing of the early Phantoms' woodwork, whilst the main contractor ramped up their production.
