I just spoke to a company from whom we buy touch up and refinishing supplys from and they sell this and its hundreds less than Melisi
From contributor he
hard to figure the thinking behind the pricing, was shocked when i found out
From contributor Ri
I've used both and liked the Milesi sealer a little better but have no problem with Ilva products and we're using a ton of it right now.

Thx and herb but im more soecifically refering to their arcylic poly 2k paint that is a primer/paint all in one.from my understanding, with Ilva, it's a 2:1 ratio paint to catalyst, which seems like a lot compared to melisi, but if memory serves, its 32oz of paint to 10 oz of catalyst, so in the immediate term its less to get ilva, but i think long term its more expensive for ilva. But actual costs of ilva to melisi, i think ilva is cheaper, so it may be about the same at the end if the day
