Nitrocellulose paints, also known as NC paints, are solvent-based coatings commonly used in automotive refinishing, furniture finishing, and other applications. These paints are formulated with nitrocellulose resin, which is a fast-drying and durable film-forming material. Nitrocellulose paints provide excellent adhesion, good hardness, and resistance to abrasion and chemicals. They are known for their quick drying time, allowing for fast production turnaround. However, they can be prone to yellowing over time and may require additional topcoat protection for outdoor use.
