Over twice the cost! The reducer is just demineralized water.The Dealer I worked for just switched and my buddy hates the stuff. He had to buy new guns which gets costly as well. Takes forever to flash even in a heated booth and very hard to see coverage with just the base on. Totally different color after the clear is applied too. I hated it when we were schooled on it at PPG classes! I have no desire to use the stuff myself! I will stick with the Solvent based products.
