The Advantages of PPG Waterborne Systems
Long before collision centers in North America had begun to hear about waterborne, PPG was already immersed in it. PPG first introduced waterborne technology for OEM assembly plants back in 1986, and our waterborne base-coat refinish systems have been used in Europe since the early 1990s. Today, in North America, PPG waterborne base-coat systems offer the number one best-selling technology of its kind.
PPG is continuously improving and remastering the technology and chemistry to meet the performance demands of high-production collision centers and to match today’s colors and finishes precisely. Recently, PPG created a single-stage waterborne system for use on vehicle interiors and engine bay repairs. This is another example of the type of continuous expansion and improvement in waterborne coatings you can expect from PPG.
Southern KY Collision is always looking for cutting-edge ways to improve our customers’ experience. We have found that the PPG waterborne system is the highest-quality refinish product on the market.
