i need to know how to mix two pack laquer.?

Question

i have paint sprayed my motor cycle fairing but the laquer which came with the paint did not have instructions on the ratio of the mix. can anyone help?
thanks to all in advance

Answer 1

first, sod the mixing (read the instructions) but you do know that 2pack needs to be baked in an oven... which wont do your fairing any good!

2pack needs an activator, and heat to harden...

Answer 2

Go back to the paint supplier and ask for a mixing stick for the make of paint supplied

The stick has markings to indicate the ratio of mix Hardner , activator, thinner and paint/lacquer

Spraying is an experienced technique and you might find it not too easy if you do not have experience in this. The result may then be dissapointing but good luck

Answer 3

My husband works in a Paintshop and he says its usually 3-5 parts paint to 1 part hardener, he says phone the paint manufacturer and ask them as different manufacturers have different mixing ratios. Also 2 pack is harmful to breathe and fumes should be extracted.

Answer 4

all you need to do to mix 2 pack paint is pour some paint into a container, then add hardener, i usually use about 3 parts paint to 1 part hardener, but have used anything up to 5 =parts =paint to 1 part hardener with excellent resaults, then just add enough reducer untill you can dip a mixing stick in the paint, pull it out and the paint liquid should drip off, shouldn't run off the stick.

then just spray it on, you won't need to bake it, but it will probably take 24 hours to be completely dry, and will continue to harden over the next week.

Answer 5

Two Pack Lacquer
