<div class="htmlview paragraph">A new type of acrylic finish has been developed which shows considerable promise as an automotive topcoat. Nonaqueous acrylic dispersion finishes combine exceptionally high application solids with reflow process capabilities characteristic of current lacquers. In addition, acrylic dispersions utilize low cost aliphatic hydrocarbon diluents and should readily satisfy air pollution requirements. Final film properties of dispersion finishes are equal or superior to those of conventional thermoplastic acrylic lacquers.</div>
