Problem with industrial paint, at least the ones I know about are they contain alot off metals and a regular paint resparator wont filter them out. Painting one car with it wont hurt you...but guys who paint a lot with it have a shortend life span along with lots of other problems...
The paint your gonna be spraying is not good for ya. Even regular automotive. Make sure you protect yourself as much as possible.

I painted my dump truck frame with industrial paint this past summer and I would never recommend it to anybody espically for a CAR. Had to thin it out like water and would not cover.

I painted a Grand Cherokee with U-TECH industrial paint this week. Turned out pretty good and was only $50 FOR THE PAINT!! Also needed hardner but it was still around $80-90 for everything.

Guys,
By law all automotive paint is now water based and is much safer to use. I would get in touch with Rondex here in Winnipeg, (204) 943-4531 and see what they can provide...

By law All the body shops here are still using reg paint
(according to Car Quest) who suppolies a lot, and uses non-water base on their own store
Only 1body shop has a water born and they don't like it

All body shops in Canada should be using water born by now. It's law. I prefer water born, if your shop is properly set up for it it's far better.
For a dyi job like Jonathans matt black, solvent is the way to go. The truck I painted with U-tech a couple weeks ago had the paint supplied to me by the guy who owned the truck.

427 Carl,
My truck was painted using waterborne paint. Like I said, it's the law due to the chemicals in the old style paint...

I understand what you said
My long time buddy works in a shop converted to water borne They and he hate it..
I went in to Car Quest to get touch up for my red truck and Monte They made the spray bomb and touch up there
They said that almost all of their customers who paint are buying their non-water borne paint and supplies from them I was surprised
I will ask again about the non compliance

No worries Carl,
Perhaps when you buy touch-up they can get away with non waterbourne..but I do know that Body Shops have to use it..whether they like it or not...I do know it has improved since Chrysler used it on Neons when they first came out in the 90's

true
and remember nobody like base clear when it came out either
june 2010 it was law to convert to water base-retailers are not supose to sell solvent based-body shops are not suppose to use it either
of course things are often done differently in different areas

Clear coats are low voc now...nothing like they were a few years ago. Now with HVLP guns and low voc clears way more goes on the car and a lot less solvent in the air. It's getting better every year.

In Quebec there is no compliance to change over to water based paint yet, All the provincial signs that u see along the road are still painted with non water borne paint, according to my source water paint doesn't last as long--------so if its good enough for Mr Dalton I'm still going to use it.
