Default Painting Harleys

In case anybody is interested solvent based paint is going to be phased out within 2years. Everbody is going to be using waterborn paint. IN ohio right know it is being pushed pretty hard.
This means epa compliant spray guns modified spraybooths. Solvent based paint will still be available for several years after that, so all the doit yourselfers will still be able to get the paint in solvent.
A look on the bright side all harley bikes built in last couple of years have been waterborn.
