Go Green with PPG Waterborne Clearcoat

Good news for refinishing. Good news for the environment. PPG launch Waterborne Clearcoat; an innovation in green technology.

PPG is pleased to announce the launch of a new PPG Waterborne Clearcoat D8186 to enable bodyshops to demonstrate their commitment to reducing solvent emissions without compromising the quality of the repair.

Combined with a dedicated hardener and thinner, the D8186 Waterborne Clearcoat provides enhanced flow and appearance, making it even easier to achieve a top quality result.

D8186 is simple to mix and easy to use, benefitting from a 'one visit' application process. Combining ease of application with a superb finish ensures a quality reproduction of OEM finish.

Using PPG Waterborne Clearcoat, together with ENVIROBASE® High Performance basecoats and Enviro Primer Surfacer provides a complete 'green' solution to bodyshops that are environmentally conscious and demand premium-quality repairs with maximum throughput.

Rick Kerry, Ipswich Accident Repair Centre comments on the new Waterborne Clearcoat

"We are proud to be part of the green scene! We have been using PPG waterborne basecoats for a number of years and have had nothing but excellent results. Our cycle times have reduced, our productivity has increased and most importantly we have been able to meet our ever growing customers' awareness for green eco-friendly products.

We are especially impressed with the new waterborne clearcoat which has further allowed us to improve our throughput due to the ease of application and excellent drying times - surprisingly it smells great too!"
