Abstract
Coating compositions that include organic solvents and have a shear thinning rheological profile. At high shear rates the coating compositions have a viscosity low enough to flow through an opening in a high efficiency applicator and be applied to a surface. Under low or no shear, the coating compositions, when applied to a vertical surface, exhibits minimal or no sag.
