This two-page pricelist was the very first "WASCO Catalog", published in 1982. It featured the brand new Polytranspar Paint System in a lacquer-based version only. 39 colors were available. The new code numbers for these colors began with the letters FP, which was short for "Fish Paint". A pint of Polytranspar paint cost $7.95. Over twenty years later, the price is now $9.95 for a pint, a 25% increase (or an increase of less than 2% per year).
