Sw Hybrid Paint

Any of you guys try the new sw acrylic-oil proclassic paint sounds odd.
the girl at the store was telling me you clean up with water but if say your brush is nasty you use thinner. how does it spray? i might see if I can get a free gallon just to try it out.

Never used the SW product. There are several companies that have been doing this for years. Richards out of Florida has a fairly extensive line of hybrid product. I've used theirs. It flows out just like your old school oils and dries in about 15 minutes. Very little odor as well. It works by using an alkyd resin so fine that it can suspend it a water base. One of the regional companies I deal with quite a bit, Davis Frost, is going to be using this technology almost exclusively for interior oil products due to coming VOC regulations. Both companies seem to be very confident in the technology.

anyone use it yet? I have been stuck on 3 jobs in a row where I have been using bm oil on the trim so I have yet to try it myself.
