Thump -

There are a host of water-based materials available that will perform as
well or better than your solvent-based can stuff.  However, if cans are
your 'thing', very little is available in the water-based stuff in this
vehicle, at least to my knowledge.  If you have spray equipment, though,
the choices are many.  As conscious as seem to be of your environment, I
am quite surprised you use the can versions of solvent-based stuff. 
Perhaps the least environmentally-friendly product available, IMO.
