    2k Upol primers are good, clear I do not like. As far as a true 2 part system in a spray can is impossible, primer or clear that is part one, part 2 is the hardner or activator. thus a chemical reaction once mixed you cant stop it, only prolong it by keeping it cold will work.
    That's why the 2K stuff has an activator button on the can to mix the hardener in and the can has about 12 hours of shelf life once mixed.

      Haha

      Learned somthing new. I have not seen that, I will have to ask my vendor about that, I do use the 2k Upol primer alot at work but I get it by the gallon.

        Great stuff! Lays out beautifully, not much post work to be done to it...

        SprayMax now offers a 2 part (2K) Urethane Aerosol Clear Coat. This 2k urethane Clear Coat spray has a much higher U.V. and weather resistance than any standard aerosol clearcoat on the market today.

          This may not be what you had in mind, but this brushed-on horror show by the PO is certainly cheap, reduced the value of the bike considerably

                          The links to the other threads are lame.

                          This is not my bike, not my paint.

                          Not me, I didn't paint this one.

                          Portdave painted it, not me.

                                I did my last project myself. I used appliance paint that I bought at Walmart. Covered great. I used SprayMax clear coat and did some wet sanding afterwards. I even cut my own pin stripes, not the Honda logo. $15.00 for that, $8 in paint, $3 in vynal, $23 for the Spraymax.




                                Oh, $5 for Duplicolor for the frame.
