yip , just till 2009 i heard and then its all over for us cowboys , i detest that waterbased. drying times are unreal , a lifetime...nice gto . some tool

it's all water-based over here now. guys still haven't gotten used to using it judging by some of the stuff I've seen

tell me about it , its more the metalics, it seems a lot heavier and doesnt drop as nice.....i done two vans last week at work . looked stunning in the oven and when they came out i near fainted...patchy as hell . although it doesnt help when the place is a sh1t hole
