When it comes to repainting your vehicle we offer a wide selection of paint products, each have their own benefits and uses. Here is a quick run down of the most popular finishes we supply.
2K Acrylic Paint is the hardest wearing paint we supply. 2K also known as 2 Pack means there are two components, the paint itself and a hardener (activator). Hardener is added to the paint to start the curing process, this is mixed to a set ratio for optimal performance. The hardener is required for the paint to dry.
2K Paints are mixed to Solid colours only – Metallic, pearl, candy or xirallic colours can only be mixed in our Polyester Basecoat paint.
This paint has a tough finish once fully cured. Being scratch, weather, petrol & UV resistant 2K is a popular choice for professionals. We can supply 2K with a Gloss, Satin (semi-gloss) or Matt finish.
