Perhaps the California initiated low VOC laws that every other state seems to eventually adopt hasn't made the trip across the Atlantic. BC depends on color. Anything with red or pearl is out of sight. My Ford Venetian Orange color on my '31evidently has both. If it has 'flake, that's also an adder. We can buy white, gray or black in single stage fairly reasonably in off brands

Thanks Roadster32! Just the process I'm looking for, though I realize this changes for different paint types, it's close enough for me.

Dave I guess I did flunk the 8a.m. test. Last November I called summit to see if there was a problem with buying and shipping their one stage to California. They said no, and nothing they new of, so I held off buying paint for it. Called them today, and got the news you've already shared. So I guess non volatiles are now on the menu!
