Here you go mate,

I've just popped down and luckily I have some bits here to show you.

heres a picture of the promoter, I use this in the bodyshop all day long for small jobs like bumper repairs and swear by it.



Heres the picture of the primer I use for pretty much everything.



And also the hardner. This primer is a 4:1 ratio.



These products are the best and I reccomend them to anybody.

Do a chess board effect.

That'll look sweet and I know you've been making chess/draughts boards IIRC!

Basically solvent based paints are being replaced by water based.

its because of the isocynates if thats how you spell it.

Solvent based is still readily available over the counter from all suplliers I have used.

In my opinion water based is better for several reasons.

1, it is safer.
2, it lays better
3, a lot less chance of reaction as it is not solvent based and therefore will not react with any other paints on the panel.


Shops are allowed to use all there existing stock, one guy I was talking to has enough to supply the same amount of solvent paint as he reguarly sells for the next ten years or more!

On the tin you will have a sticker that states not for use in the automotive industry.

I will get a picture of a tin i have here to show you what i mean.

You are allowed to use it for classic restoration

Not all Solvent based paints contain Isocyanates, only those that are to be used in high temperature applications and do are in a resin type system.

Paints can also be set 'hard' by using a dilute organic peroxide, but, that is more professional paints then over the counter stuff.

If you need it that bad WB I can get my hands on some high quality paint that is used in aviation, just, can't be too fussy on colours as it is either white, blue or camo-green...
