About Us
Paint Services is an independently owned family business founded in 1945, originally converting WW2 vehicles for civilian use. We then started a bodyshop in Oxford and then evolved to start supplying the automotive refinish sector throughout Glocestershire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Wiltshire.
Our new online shop has a wide range of products for the automotive, industrial and marine finish industries.

Our History
Groom & Hornsby Ltd was formed in the 1940s originally converting military vehicles for civilian use in Oxford. It then became a fully fledged bodyshop, repairing cars and commercial vehicles. Over the years Groom & Hornsby became more and more involved with the suppliers and started “Paint Services” in the 1960s. Since then Paint Services has grown to be a leading supplier of paint, consumables and PPE working closely with suppliers such as The Trade Group, Lechler, Roar and Akzo Nobel.Â
What we stand for...
We find that with some very large suppliers, customers are sometimes not the priority. This is not the case with us. We are big enough to compete in order to get the best prices but are small enough to care about all our customers no matter how big they are.Â
