should be fine, keep the tin sealed to make sure
and are you painting it yourself?
*edit*
do you have the facilities i.e. spray booth with suitable extractors, air fed mask etc...
if not then dont even attempt to paint the car with two pack paint for your own healths sake

not only that, 2k paint is carcegenic (causes cancer) so really its not just your own health your looking after, hate to sound like a fucking health and safety freak but its not the kinda stuff to fuck about with

Depends on the type of 2k paint you use. You can get 'safe' 2k paints that you can spray with a normal mask instead of an air fed one.
But you can keep 2k paint for a while, so long as it isn't mixed with the activator beause a) it will set and b) the activator is acidic and will melt though the can you keep it in.
