The collision shop is now using the AWX Waterborne Basecoat System from Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes. Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes implemented AWX, a waterborne basecoat system that utilizes a proprietary resin technology that allows it to behave like the solvent borne systems of today.
