The application of 2K or 2-component paint is very easy and quick to explain. The name already indicates that the finished paint consists of 2 different components. It is a so-called base coat (paint, primer) and the matching hardener. A few things to consider for easy processing of a 2-component paint. The description of the paint always contains the most important data about the paint. These are the following points: which hardener belongs to the paint mixing ratio processing viscosity dilution pot life processing time processing type (application) processing conditions These points in detail: which hardener belongs to the paint? In the description of the paint (usually even on the paint can), the exact name of the hardener that matches the paint is always indicated. Please never use another hardener. Mixing ratio: the two components, i.e. paint and hardener are mixed together in a specific ratio directly before processing. This ratio is also indicated in the description of the paint or on the paint can. Here as an example: mixing ratio 5:1 (by weight) which means that you weigh 5 parts paint and 1 part hardener and mix together. Depending on how much paint you need for a work, it is best to take a kitchen scale, place an empty can on top and then fill in 500 g of varnish first, then add 100 g of hardener. This would then be the specified mixing ratio 5:1 by weight. Stir this mixture well for at least 1 minute. If you want to dilute the colour, you can order our Lion Special Dilution 2K/400 colours. The following RAL colours cannot be produced. Please check in advance: 1026, 1035, 1036, 2005, 2007, 2013, 3024, 3026, 3032, 3033, 4011, 4012, 5025, 5026, 6035. 6036, 6038, 7048, 8029, 9002, 9023
