I just got back from the company sales meeting in Orlando...Lots of new cool stuff. We are now the world leader in Coatings($16 Billion revenue). Our closest competitor is BASF($8 million) and then Dupont, PPG, some other loser, some other loser, and so on and so on. It's good to be livin' with Uncle Akzo! Anyway, I got to meet Dean Loucks, one of my paint heros. He does lots of custom airbrush work on Extreme Boats like Fountains and Scarabs. Also, he does Tour Buses (Randy Travis, ), Racecars(Indy), Bikes, Guitars, Helmets, Toasters, and whatever...Really unbelievable stuff. This pic was just something he did for the meeting and it's all done with an airbrush and SIKKENS.
More cool new stuff:
-Paint that changes color with heat...
-Coatings on appliances that are colored but go clear when you hit a button, so that you can see what's in the refrigerator...This technology is already here..and it won't be long before it's in the stores
-BLACK BOXES in vehicles(like in airplanes)... Yeh, it's already in a test market right now. So, the insurance company can determine exactly what you've done wrong in an accident...and guess who's not payin' for the wreck...

That hundred dollar bill burning is really something. I don't quite understand the coatings that change color.
