 It would be interesting to make up some PFG with the Auto Air Aluminum (AAA  ) product. I still have some left over. Although, I would have to use the Behr 4850 white paint as the base. This paint is awesome guys. I think it would be as good if not better than the other white paints you have tried. The good thing about using the AAA is it does help with spraying as it was designed to be sprayed. Just a thought, Or is that 2 thoughts? |
Ben like mech said we're actively looking at this right now, and thanks for passing it along!
I called the company and this is basically the same as what I originally was using but mine ended up discontinued... which was aluminum, a binding material, and water. That's it.
I called Createx today and they said yup, that's all that's in the Auto-Air Aluminum.
Like you said, this is designed to be sprayed so a couple things right off the bat:
- No need to strain it prior to being used.
- Definitely sprayable
- Will probably be able to be sprayed with a Preval Sprayer too for those that want to go that route
- For those that want to roll, it will act as a natural thinner to latex paint and help it go down very smooth.
I do want to say before anyone runs out and buys this, we need to test it and find a base white that is more in like with our specs. We only did basic testing with the original because why waste time on something that was discontinued? We could have worked a base out but why? (In hind sight, if we had then this would be a simple substitute is all... but as they say hindsight is 20/20 right?)
So right now we know HE558 works, and we'll get an easier method out shortly but it will be the same method and performance, it won't be a total redesign or complicated method.
