2 pack or acrylic??? need some opinions

[cheapdouchebag]

I had my LX Torana painted in Devil Yellow, which was 2-Pak, a lot more prep was needed, but the finish was unbelievably nice.

Very glossy, very "hard". Was a backyard job in a concrete floored shed by my pop.

long as neighbours didnt complain abt the fumes, and proper masks were worn, thats a good example of a situation where a booth issent needed. very keen to see pics!
However, how was the drying/hardening process? id assume without baking the yellow must of taken a long time to 100% cure.

i like using 2pack as its got a more sticky texture off the gun unlike acrylic its just runny and u gotta be a bit more careful. and the rubdown process of acrylic is the make or break in terms of quality imo. i do alot of work with acrylic paints though mind you, just easier n safer for me to use at home. dont really get the chance often to use a booth.

2pack with the buffing process issent as intensively required like acrylics, only have to really go over areas where needs corrections provided proper gun techniques are layed on. the watery/oily spots u speak off is just poor worksmanship. but always can be corrected by a genius detailer. hell ive had a friend who restored a black vti-r that had faded paint on the top of the doors n strapped for cash he managed to remove it by using 3 2 dollar spray cans of gloss black and alot of time n patience with the blending/detailing step and it came up amazing for the age of the car.

Oem honda paint is acrylic.

omfg, ur not serious areyou?

i would be so shattered to find out of this is true. where'd u get ur sources from?

so thats y it was so easy to sand off the clear before painting a boot..
