CARC
![]() |
Military Paint - Government requires Complaint equipment when spraying solvent based Carc in restricted areas. There is new waterbased Carc on the market to eliminate hazardous shipping and Air Quality Control Restrictions. We Recommend 1.8mm nozzle setup Pressure Feed. 2.2-2.5 Gravity Feed. See Also the best Zinc Gun on the Market Zinc Panther see also rifles |

The Differences
There are a lot of differences between WD CARC and the old solvent-based CARC.
Solvent content: The solvent content of WD CARC is less than half that of solvent-based CARC. It also contains no hazardous air pollutants.
Compatibility: Since WD CARC is fully compatible with all existing CARC primers and topcoats, you can use it to touch up a vehicle that's been painted with solvent-based CARC.
Flexibility: WD CARC is more flexible after application. That means fewer problems with chipping and cracking.
Mar resistant: WD CARC is more durable and doesn't scratch as easily as the old CARC. That means less time spot painting to fix scratches and scrapes.
Weather resistant: WD CARC is much more durable in all weather conditions. In fact, tests have shown that WD CARC can last up to twice as long as the old solvent-based CARC.
Color stability: WD CARC doesn't fade like the old CARC. So when you do have to spot paint, you won't have to worry about the colors not matching.
Cost: WD CARC does cost a little more than the old CARC, but you won't need as much. Tests have shown that up to one-third less paint is needed during spray application.
Although WD CARC is water-based, the personal protective equipment required during spray and brush application remains the same as for solvent-based CARC.
* both hazardous materials and need to be treated as such. Both require specific safety gear designed to protect the soldier against the harmful affects. Clothes that cover all your skin. Coveralls work well. Boots and rubber gloves.Face shield or splash goggles to protect your eyes from paint. Respiratory protection.
WD CARC NSNs
There are two types of WD CARC. Type I is better than the original CARC but contains silica-based extender pigments that are almost identical to those used in solvent-based CARC.
The extender pigments in Type II are replaced by small spherical beads. These beads are the main reason for the paint's improved performance properties and make it the recommended choice.
Car VOCS
both are hazardous material but WD Carc has less chemicals as is safer to use.
