Default looking for paint

<span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS">hi all. i buzzed through as many threads as i could remember talking about paint. i'm looking for a curtain kind, along the lines of warbirdcolors.com. but it's not them. there's a brand out there that claims their paints are 'green', like eco friendly, able to be brushed or sprayed, not aerokote,but i can't for the life of me remember what their brand name and website are. i think they were epoxy-based, but i'm not sure. i remember getting the link from a thread here on RCU, some time ago. please help if you remember. i want to say their web page was mostly orange and white. they sold other stuff as well. thanks.</span>

Stewrart Systems is one of them. You might 'google' water based aircraft paint manufacturers. I remember reading an article about eco- friendly paints and I think I eventually got to the website via 'The Cub Den' website links, etc. but just can't remember.

You might be thinking of Nelson Hobbies that sells a line of water based paint.

The Two part Epoxy paint is Klass Kote but I don't think there is anything green about it?? I haven't looked at there web site in a while, maybe they are making green products these days?? The KK is bullet proof and easy to work with. Even Acetone has no effect on it.
