WD carc
contains
water and
is thinned
with
water.
There are a lot of differences between WD CARC and
the old solvent-based CARC. And you’ll be very happy
with most of ‘em.
•
Solvent content.
The solvent content of WD CARC is
less than half that of solvent-based CARC. It also contains
no hazardous air pollutants.
•
Compatibility.
Since WD CARC is fully compatible
with all existing CARC primers and topcoats, you can use
it to touch up a vehicle that’s been painted with solvent-
based CARC.
•
Flexibility.
WD CARC is more flexible after application.
That means fewer problems with chipping and cracking.
•
Mar resistant.
WD CARC is more
durable and doesn’t scratch as easily as
the old CARC. That means less time
spot painting to fix scratches and
scrapes.
•
Color stability.
WD CARC doesn’t
fade like the old CARC. So when you
do have to spot paint, you won’t have to
worry about the colors not matching.
•
Cost.
WD CARC does cost a little
more than the old CARC, but you won’t
need as much. Tests have shown that up
to one-third less paint is needed during
spray application.
•
Weather resistant.
WD CARC is
much more durable in all weather con-
ditions. In fact, tests have shown that
WD CARC can last up to twice as long
as the old solvent-based CARC.
I’m
a
lot more
flexible!

to learn
what
you’ll
need!
ooh,
that’s a
nasty
-looking
scratch!
hey!
where’d
ya go!?
I may
cost
more, but I
go
a lot
farther!
Although WD CARC is
water-based,
the personal pro-
tective equipment required
during spray and brush appli-
cation remains the same as for
solvent-based CARC.
oh,
great!
I’ve got a
lot of spot
painting to
do today.
it’s safer
and easier
to use than
the old
solvent-
based carc!
cheer up,
soldier!
now you can
use water
dispersable
carc.
it’s called water
dispersible (WD)
carc and the key
word is
water.
There’s a new
carc in town and
you’re going to
find it a whole lot
better to use than
the old stuff.
