GERMANY: NEW COATING TECHNOLOGY BY BASF
Article Abstract:
Following tests at Mercedes-Benz in Dresden, BASF Coatings AG is to launch a new car refinish system. Under the title "Reihe 90 Innovation", the German company provides refinishes for metallic, effect and regular paints. Rather than three, the system now consists of merely two components: a basic paint and a tinge. Compared with the predecessor, the new system features faster homogenisation, a 70% reduction of organic solvent emissions, improved storage properties, a material saving of up to 15 and a time saving of about 25%.
