If you've moved to waterborne basecoat but you're still spraying solvent-heavy primer, you've left half the VOC reduction on the table.
Most paint shops have made the switch to waterborne. The biggest single VOC source in the process is gone. But traditional solvent-based primer fillers still go on the panel underneath, often unchanged for years. Multiple coats to achieve hiding. More material, more solvent, more time in the booth.
Sinnek's PF/7040 takes the same approach to primer that waterborne took to basecoat. UHS technology, higher hiding power per litre. Tints to match the W6000 basecoat colour going over it, so you cover in fewer coats. Less material per car. Less solvent released in the booth.
Stack it with the rest of Sinnek's Low-Impact System (W6000 waterborne basecoat, CC/1700 UHS clearcoat) and you've cut VOC at every stage of the process, not just one. PF/7040 sits below 540 g/l, compliant with European Norm 2004/42/CE II(C).
Lower in-booth exposure for your team. Less material through the booth filters. A primer stage that finally matches where the rest of the trade has gone.
BPP supplies the full Sinnek Low-Impact System. DM us to talk through where it fits your process.

The future is bright.

Three things make or break a waterborne setup, and the paint isn't one of them.
Flash times. Gun atomisation. Air movement in the booth.
Get those three dialled in and Sinnek W6000 does what it's meant to do. Get one of them wrong and you'll spend the next six months blaming the paint.
Always check the manufacturer TDS for your booth setup. If you want to talk it through for your own setup, give us a shout.

If you're a decorator or a joiner, you've probably never thought of us.
Fair enough. Most of what we do is bodyshop supply. But the abrasives are the same product, and the bulk pricing is the same pricing.
Norton across the full grade range. MDF through to fine finishing. Decent stock, same-day on most lines locally.
If you're going through enough discs to feel it on the books, give us a call.

Most paint defects don't start in the booth. They start at the prep phase.
Wrong disc grade. Skipped stage. A scratch missed under the primer that doesn't show up until the topcoat goes on. By then you're either spending time and effort on a spot repair or worse, stripping it back and starting again.
Norton's range is built so the prep stage is repeatable. Same grades, same sequence, same result regardless of who's on the tools.
If your team's been chasing adhesion issues or surface defects lately, the fix usually isn't in the paint. Give us a call and we'll talk it through.

Colour match off. Recoat. Booth time wasted.
First-time colour accuracy is one of the biggest time-savers in any paint bay. And it starts well before the paint goes in the gun.
Sinnek's spectrophotometer matching reads the panel itself, not just the colour code. Read, formulate, spray-out, done. Fewer steps in the process. Less back-and-forth at the mixing room.
We carry the full Sinnek refinish system. Want to discuss your options?

Booth time is the most expensive square footage in any workshop.
Every extra hour a car sits in there waiting to cure is an hour the next car isn't in. And the one after that. The numbers stack up fast across a quarter.
Besa URKI FLY Express is built for paint bays where booth turnaround is the bottleneck. Express cure. Full gloss. No compromise on the finish.
If throughput is what's pinching the numbers this quarter, the booth's the cheapest place to look. DM us or give us a call to talk through Besa clearcoat options.

The budget disc is rarely the cheaper option.

Count the changeovers. Add the rework on a job that came back. Then divide by panels actually finished.

The cost per panel is almost never what the invoice said.
