I wouldn't touch isocyanide paints without extraction TBH, an old guy I know used it when it was first released without a mask not realising how dangerous it was. It serioulsy damaged his lungs and he died recently as a result of it. The guy who sprayed the car with him died much earlier too. | |

Yeah as said above 2 pac contains CYANIDE, i was strongly reccomended not to use it without full breathing apparatus or equivalent protection. Thus we did my m8s car in cellulose and its reasonably pants. | |

2Pack paint is a ration of 2:1 (Paint and hardeners) and you can add upto 10% thinners | |

Excellent, cheers guys, ill probably be doingg most of the spraying in my mates garage, i have my old work mask which should be alright as it protects against most gasses. | |

another thing is when u first get your pump out to start spraying release any pressure in the pump and airlines before u start, if u dont that pressure builds up and creates air pockets in the paint, then it wont cover aswell and thin it out a bit | |

If you are spraying 2 pack do it in a well vetilated area as it contains cyanide. A mask would also be a good idea. | |

depends on the binder type of the paint, some are alkaline resistant and some are double bodied with a strong finishing paint film | |
