The reason they say you cant paint 2 pac at home is it has isocianates in it and they can kill you, they are very poisonous and you need an air fed breathing mask when you are painting.

so if Kombikid never posts again we know what happened.

There is a local place that reckons they have pods for masks that are ok but Im not willing to put my lungs through it.

The other reason most people say you cant spray 2 pack at home is the fact that while it remains wet dust particles and especially hair lands in the paint.In a spray booth you can limit this buy keeping it clean and not leaving it open any longer than you have too.
Also b carful when spraying with low pressure, as this can leed to orange peel.
best of luck!
ps panl beaters dont usually rub anything down xcept bog!Where as a spraypainter usually rubs down the harbour bridge each year!
