Question:

Nick, thank you for your informative magazine. I currently work for ITW Finishing, formerly ITW Ransburg, formerly Ransburg/Gema, etc. RansPrep is still available from a company called Chemical Technology. They can be reached at (313) 893-4930. Formerly this company was called Electrocoat Chemical and HSC. Corp. Let me know if I can help further. M.E.

Answer:

Alas, an answer to the long time question: where to purchase RansPrep!!! I will pass it along. To remind everyone RansPrep is a liquid paint used to make nonconductive surfaces conductive for electrostatic spray activities—a must for powder coating plastic substrates.
