Have been looking into waterborne polyurethane.
AFS seems a good system, but do they really make their own paint? I
don't think so, but might be wrong. In any case they're selling for $250+
per gallon which is very expensive.
I know at least one of the big name fabric covering paint systems, is
dupont, which is repackaged and mixed with flex additives. So I'd
not be surprised to find that AFS is from somebody else as well.
Which led me to searching around, and SystemThree (T-88 adhesive, etc)
makes a waterborne marine polyurethane, and epoxy system. Which is
$130/gallon they will custom mix colors for $170/gallon
http://www.systemthree.com
The similarities between the product's, and several other similar products
which I know for sure are systemthree, makes me suspect that AFS is
really just repackaging, and reselling systemthree in custom colors.
Anyway, I went the solvent based polyurethane route with the last plane,
and now the wife has forbidden me from doing so again, so I'm looking
at more friendly systems.
