VOC-COMPLIANT AWX from Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes Corp. (SWAFC) is a waterborne basecoat/clearcoat system utilizing a proprietary resin system that behaves like the solvent-borne systems of today, says the company.

- simple, compact toner line that is easy to mix;
- superior color match and blending properties;
