Sorry never heard of it. I have used 2 part epoxy primers as well as 2 part paints (which are health killers too) and if you are safety concerned get a air breathing system. This will supply you with clean air during your painting.

I have used it and am considering switching over to it. Distilled water is typically used in place of reducer. My needs are health and safety of staff. Problem with waterborne materials is selection. There is very little products to choose from. The idea to create paints that are low in volotile organic compounds (VOC"s)was great. However, it was poorly executed and never became a big success. Some manufacturers used it on vehicles. Even this was not enough to save the idea. The competition got around the health and safety issue by making new products with lower VOC ratings. The story is no different than steel vs aluminum in vehicle construction. Aluminum manufacturers wanted a piece of the vehicle market saying we can make vehicles lighter. The steel industry responds with new technology that makes vehciles lighter and equally strong. Go to the Ultra Light Steel Autobodies web site to see how your truck is made. The technology is very interesting.
