[Bmcu] water based paints

[Barry]

When I buy my paint for my MG-TD I will be getting the Valspar water base enamel at Lows.  It's cheep and can be applied with a roller and brush.  Lows has a wide selection of colors.  I think that I can paint my entire car with 1 Gal and the clean-up is easy.

  Going to water-based paint for automotive use is the first step.  Step 2 will be the switch to finger paints.  At that point  the EPA will be happy as the elimination of toxicity in automotive paint will be complete.

  In talking with a couple of professional painters, they feel that the new water base paints apply better and are easier to match
