The automotive industry faces severe challenges in meeting both legislated requirements and market-place forces of the 1980’s. Many of these challenges impact on topcoat finishing of appearance parts. The purpose of this paper is to identify these forces and to describe anticipated needs and changes in topcoat finishing in response to these forces. The impact of specific legislation and the approaches being used for resolution are discussed.
