There is nothing wrong with waterborne it just has to dry correctly as in evaporate and be dry before the clear coat is applied.

If your trusted painters are using it Id say it is because of state laws.

I have just used waterborne for the first time myself last month and its not bad but if you do not have the little air dryers in the booth it takes forever for it to dry its all about wind and downdraft booths do not cut it for drying. They will have the correct systems if they are using it at the shop.
It is a GM shop that has been using it for the last three or four months to get ahead in the learning curve with the new EPA laws that start January 1st. I am probably going to wait until March or April seeing as how the Car will be put away come October.
I do like Steel blue but I really like the Purple.
