I have been informed by my lordco paint rep that at the end of the year, we will no longer be able to buy solvent based auto paint, and we will be forced to switch to waterborn paints which require a ubber spensive cross draft booths, not to mention all the solvent paint guns will be obsolete....
basicaly killing any hobbiest paint operations...like me

Those guys in nothern Cali should have it made. Just take some of their sun lamps off of their indoor crops (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) for a while.

So the decision for them is... New paint or better crops (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol3.gif)

He's probably got access to some up there somewhere through someone.......ever here the term "BC Bud"? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif)

Actually I believe all/most of the new european cars are that way with paint. Except I believe even clear coat is as well due to european environmental restrictions. The paint thus far is not nearly as durable vs. stone chips and the like. Makes investing in clear bra on a new car a very sound decision.
