[NSRCA-discussion] paint

[Mike Hester]

I recently used some cub yellow that I bet was 6 years old. PPG concept must have a HECK of a shelf life!

  The PPG paint doe not really have a shelf life, and I have used some that was several years old with no problems.  The items that DO have a life are the activator  (DUs) and to some extent the reducers (DTs)  The test for the activator is if it is still clear and fluid, us it.  If it has yellowed and/or gelled, toss it!  The reducers should really last a long time, provided they are kept air-tight.

  I have some PPG paint I bought from my local PPG paint store a couple of years ago.  Before using it, I wonder if there's a recommended "use by" on any of the paint elements.

  Go to the PPG web site  www.ppg.com and find a local autostore that carries their line of paints.  That's where I've always bought all my supplies. You won't be able to get as small a supply of colors, but getting pints or quarts of catalyst or reducer usually isn't a problem.

  Hey Guys,
  I just called Radio South to order some catalyst for some Concept paint that I have left from the last paint project I conducted
  and was informed that they no longer carry the line. 
  I have quite a bit of color stock and would like to not have to jettison the lot. Anybody know of a compatible catalyst that will work?
  TIA,
  G.
