250 gpl voc for oil based stains - AIM (Architectural Coatings) rule

Question

The 250 gpl voc for oil based stains is on schedule for a proposal this year with the limits going into effect January 1, 2012. This means it's being delayed another year. It means that those states not effected yet, have another year before this will affect them. I have this straight from an EPA contact.

It's been 6 years since the EPA change, and to date I don't think any manufacturer has stepped to the plate in making a oil base stain that actually works within the confines of 250g/l voc's. I don't really care anymore - I am going waterborne - too many damn headaches lately. There are always promises, but nothing so far that delivers.
