I have not used 2150, but it was pointed out to me some time ago on the Painting Forum on this site that it was a "modified acrylic enamel" I checked at the dealer and that is that what his cans say. I do not know exactly what that term means. Even PPG's paints belong to the alkyd family if you look at the MSDS. One advantage of going with paints from PPG, DuPont, Martin Senour, etc is that their spec sheets tell you the exact ratios, and exact reducers, hardeners, etc. to use with their paints. There is no guesswork and if you are a good painter, the paint goes on flawlessly. When you start mixing brands of paint, particularly additives, that is where the trouble starts. Terminology -- PPG has acrylic enamel and acrylic urethane. I suppose if you add hardener to acrylic enamel, you could call it "polyurethane acrylic enamel". I believe DuPont has/had an enamel that they called poly when the hardener was added. PPG does not say that. I'm not a paint chemist either, all I know is that the modern acrylic enamels and particularly the acrylic urethanes are excellent paints. You just have to do what the instructions say.
