Anyone used this 2k in an aerosol can clear coat or similar?
Trigger:
Most 2k lacquer will yellow over 60c. Have never found a high temp one yet that works.
Pot life is more like 3 to 5 hours as soon as the can has been activated the hardener is working.
Spray nozzle will need cleaning after every coat and it needs to be done in a controlled environment , 15 to 20c and dry air.

So what do you recommend then for engine covers ?

If it’s proper 2K don’t use in without a respirator or you will regret it ;)

Lacquer will not stick to alloy polished covers, you will get runs. Easy to lacquer a large flat area, than a undulating surface. Just polish the covers and keep buffing to keep them in good order ;)
