2K rattle cans

SteveW:
Has anyone used the 2K rattle cans where you press the valve in the bottom to add the activator?

Was thinking about using them on my 550 frame.

DomP:
I've not but I'm tempted to do a home spray job on my tank and side covers as I've done pretty much everything else myself it would be a shame not too.  Where have you been thinking of getting it from Steve?

SteveW:
Not sure yet, seen them on Amazon but may look elsewhere.

I have used Spraymax2k clearcoat gloss and satin (made in Germany)  and another make of 2k high build primer ProXL (made in UK) and they are truly excellent, particularly the clear. The finish is excellent and the spray pattern is too and consistent right until the end of the can.

However, they usually contain isocyanate so I invested in an air fed mask.

Had a run in with ProXL. Bought their high build 2k-in-a can high build primer/ filler and it stated on all eBay sellers descriptions and the manufacturers product date sheet that it did NOT contain isocyanate. Bought 2 cans to try and in tiny print on the can is stated "contains isocyanate'. I called the manufacturer in the UK and the lady on the phone was adamant that it doesn't contain isocyanate,  so I challenged her why the can says it does. She said she would refer it to their tech people and get back to me. Heard nothing, Phoned again 2 weeks later and no more info, so I told them to get their act together. Then got an email telling me it DOES contain isocyanate and they were amending the datasheet. Checked online a month later and datasheet not changed so I told them they had 2 weeks to change it otherwise I was going to report them to the HSE. Couple of days later datasheet  got changed accordingly  but not checked the eBay sellers.

I think some companies may  sell non-isocayante cured clear coat like RS Bikepaints ... not so sure in a 2k aerosol though....  but heard  it stays like a fly paper for ages and generally inferior.

Best place for Spraymax2k clear is Graff-City ... not cheap but goes a long way and if you get 3 cans it's free delivery over £60
