MISSISSAUGA, ON -- May 13, 2008 -- According to a statement released by PPG, more and more collision repair facilities are making the transition to waterborne basecoat from solvent-based systems in anticipation of new air quality regulations in California and Canada. So far more than 700 facilities have made the transition to PPG's Envirobase High Performance and Aquabase Plus waterborne basecoats. To help assure shops make the conversion smoothly, PPG initiated a waterborne conversion program more than a year ago in California, known as "Convert with Confidence." The program provides owners, managers and technicians with training, advice and support before, during and after the conversion. A similar program is underway here. "Many shop owners were eager to make the conversion early,” says Debbie Nucciarone, product manager for PPG Canada. “They knew regulations would make the change inevitable and they wanted to adapt quickly knowing we would provide them with the training and support they needed." The new VOC Regulations will take effect nationwide on January 1, 2010.
