im looking at getting my shell painted in next 2 weeks.

the bodyshop i want to use (for price and good work) wants to use 2k paint instead of the newer waterbased stuff.

is there any advantages or disadvantages of using this??

if its a 2k colour then its obviously a straight colour.

The up keep of a COB (clear over base) colour is alot easier.

It may be cheaper to have 2k aplied as the cost of the basecoat with COB is about the same to a litre of 2K.

Also with a full respray you wont get alot of people that use waterbased paints, stull can get hold of solvent and its a hell of alot easier for that as it dries much quicker.
