: Went to a fairly local Ace Hardware. I was told there is a
: different requirement for the solids per million parts of what
: not for all finishes where I live--LA. According to the
: salesman, it is a different product if I drive to another
: county.

: Does this sound true? I have heard there are stricter rules for
: finishes in California, but do they make different formulas for
: different parts of the the country?

: And who is willing to ship me some bootleg good stuff to Calif?

True enough, here in Ilinois oil based house paint is banned, can't be sold here. If I drive 10 miles to Wiconsin I can buy all I want.

It's the VOC's so that only low VOC paint can be sold, several states have that ban.

It's illegal to ship paint into areas with the ban btw, the shippers won't take it.
