Hi guys.

2 Questions for the pros:

Im doing a spot repair on a small section on a door.

Would I get a better blend using a 2k clear coat aerosol rather than a 1 k clear coat aerosol?

If using a 2k clear aerosol should I use a 'fade-out' aerosol aswell? (I think UPOL do one).

You cant get 2k aerosol lacquer it would go hard in the can. Yeah upol have a fade out aerosol, dont go crazy with it. One quick spray is all you should need.

Errr... yes you can! It is a single use product - once the catalyst is activated in the can, it lasts for a couple of hours before it dies.

Thanks for the tip.

You can get 2k aerosol lacquer in a can, the technology has been available for a few years.
