Yeah but, is the fender specially lined???
Is the primer also waterborne?
For the system to really be environmentally
sound then the primers would have to be waterborne also.
So what happens when the water and air hits the bare fender???
There taint no fighting it, we've got to do something to keep
from ruining the air we breath and the ozone layer that keeps
us cool and I’m sure they have it worked out it they are selling
it all over the world.
Back in the late 70’s when I was building my air plane, they were first
introducing the waterborne paints for fabric covered aircraft. It really
didn’t catch on very well but that was very early in it’s development.
I’d like to learn more about it because like the electric car, it’s the
wave of the future, so we‘d better get to know it sooner than later.
I talked with the service rep at PPG this afternoon and she said when
they are phasing out a paint line they get obsolescence notices. She had
no such notice about the Delstar (DAR) paint system as of this date.
So I think I might be safe as long as I can find a dealer that will order it
for me and has the correct tints in their paint room.
