MATCH The Envirobase High Performance refinish system keeps pace with these OEM trends by combining 3 rd generation waterborne technology, the latest translucent pigments and a scientifically proven spectral gray undercoat system to achieve the exotic styling effects of today's OE finishes. ANTI-SETTLE TONER TECHNOLOGY Envirobase High Performance toners are true latex, comprised of micro-gel, non-stir technology. These toners do not require mechanical mixing; only a few shakes by hand are needed. This innovative, anti-settle feature contributes to more consistent color from mix to mix, while preventing over-stirring and grinding down of metallics. Another desirable feature of this full-featured mixing system is long shelf life—at least four years for unopened toners and 90 days for mixed colors, under proper conditions. FACTORY-LIKE SPECTRAL GRAY SYSTEM Mirroring original finish application processes, Envirobase High Performance basecoat colors are applied over one of five shades of spectral gray undercoats. In translucent OE finishes, the undercoat is an essential element of the color match. This process best recreates the original finish, providing exceptional depth of clarity and crispness unrivalled by other paint systems. EASIER, BETTER BLENDING Envirobase High Performance waterborne technology is remarkably easy to blend, and it avoids the blotching issues associated with solvent-based systems. What's more, with half the film build of solvent, the basecoat transitions seamlessly from the repair area into the original finish. Two major trends are taking place at the OE level that should be considered when choosing a system for collision refinish work. First is the automakers' quest to differentiate their vehicles with highly chromatic exterior colors. Secondly, waterborne basecoat is the technology of choice on the majority of new vehicles being produced today. N O B E T T E R M AT C H F O R
