With the new Waterborne Rule effective January 1st, 2009, the customer must have two systems; one for solvent clean up of primers, sealers and clears, and one for waterborne basecoat paint.
    In addition to providing compliant products, equipment and the PCL System, PCL also offers its customers field service support, emergency response service, and a number of waste management options, including Haz-Mat Spill Kit, Two-Drum Secondary Containment, Paint Booth Filter disposal, Oil, Anti-freeze, Rags, and many more paint related services.
    PCL services more than 2500 Body Shops and Industrial accounts.  Depending on where the business is and which rule they have to operate under, the prices for the full PCL system solvent ranges from $ 6.85 to $7.99 per gallon. The Hazardous Paint Waste pick up from the PCL System waste drum is $2.99 per gallon.
    The Waterborne Cleaning Solution is $4.95 per gallon and the Hazardous Waterborne Liquid Waste from the PCL System waste drum is $3.75 per gallon.
    If a customer chooses not to be on the full PCL System, higher prices on waste and other waste related services may apply.
    For the customer’s convenience, PCL offers a selection of gun washers for solvent and waterborne clean up ranging from $1,200 to $4,000 and to better service the customer, PCL also offers Rental, Lease, and One payment options.

Recyclers
PCL does not sell or recommend the use of Recyclers for the following reasons.

• When the waste stream is recycled, the waste is converted into two waste streams, the liquid and the solids.

• When customer recycles solvent waste, the solvent generated by this process often does not comply with the district cleaning solvent rule. Then the paint solids must be disposed of according to the Hazardous Waste Substance Control at a higher price.
  

• Using a recycler for Waterborne Waste the same process apply.  Once they separate the waste, the water will be contaminated causing a higher disposal cost and the solids must also be disposed of, or be tested before disposing of it in the trash.  Not a good idea without the proper lab analysis.
