THE HEAVY TRUCK INDUSTRY IS SPLIT ON THE USE OF HIGH- BAKE CROSSLINKED TOPCOAT TECHNOLOGY VERSUS LOW-BAKE TOPCOAT TECHNOLOGY. NUMEROUS RIGID PLASTICS, THERMOSET AND THERMOPLASTIC, ARE USED IN THE INDUSTRY. THIS VARIETY OF SUBSTRATES NECESSITATES A TECHNOLOGY THAT CONFORMS TO A LOWER BAKE SCHEDULE. THIS PAPER DESCRIBES THE DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIAL ATTRIBUTES OF A UNIQUE PRODUCT LINE OF ACRYLIC WATERBORNE BASECOATES. THE SYSTEM MEETS A LOW-BAKE REQUIREMENT WITH THE ABILITY TO BE MASKED AND MULTI-TONED FOLLOWED BY A SINGLE CLEAR OVERCOAT.
