With the "oil ban" getting bigger and bigger, "oil to water" gradually extended to the field of automotive coatings. Including Chengdu, Nanjing, Tianjin and other cities have increased restrictions on oil-based automotive paint.

With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the purchasing power of the automotive industry is also increasing day by day. For the post-80s and post-90s car buyers, automotive painting with diversified colors has become a trend. Behind this is the upgrading and innovation of automotive paint technology. Waterborne automotive paint as an environmentally friendly paint, its extended function and development potential can not be ignored.

In China, although many cities have spared no effort to promote water-based automotive paint, there is still a big gap between China's automotive paint and painting technology compared with developed countries. It is reported that more than 70% of automobile painting production lines in Europe adopt water-based paint construction technology; more than 60% of automobile painting production lines in the United States adopt water-based paint construction technology; more than 70% in Japan adopt water-based paint construction technology; and at present, the proportion of water-based paint used by Chinese automobile manufacturers is not high, accounting for only about 25%. From 2004 to 2010, the output of waterborne paint for automobiles in China increased to 882,000 tons, an increase of 283% in six years. Although the production of automobile waterborne paint has increased substantially, the competitiveness of domestic automobile waterborne paint manufacturers is still weak.
