The cans with an activator you release into the can and are normally more expensive. This claims to be a 2k paint, but doesn't have the activator part, so what is the difference and is this true 2K paint ?
Thanks

These things have activator / hardener contained inside the can, which is opened by pressing a button on the bottom of the can. Once the button has been pressed, the activator mixes with the paint in a one shot manner & you then have whatever the pot life is to use the can.

2 pack - yes, full face mask - yes!

What's the seller said?

I also suggest you read the reviews you will find on the link page as to its performance.

My understanding is they have an activator you release in to the can, but this one states 'This aerosol contains a special convertor/activator that makes it a 2k product without the need for self activation', so was curious how it's 2k .

It's not.HB Body have 2K on a number of their aerosol products but to my knowledge they aren't.If the activator was already mixed it would cure in the tin
