More sh!te EU style regs. What's the point to it? Who thinks of these things?

Believe it when I see it though.

Also, how many spray places are gonna keep the paint at 10 deg C constant through the winter?

Read the document properly. Don't think too many changes will happen at all to the domestic market.

It's only the big vehicle paint shops that are being pushed to reduce solvent emissions as they have to get a licence to operate from the Environment Agency and they will require them to substitute solvent based paints for UV curing and heat curing ones where possible.

I am pretty sure the paints may change a little but the majority will continue to be manufactured and can probably be used with existing equipment.
