Painting Info needed

I will be painting my kombi and am looking for some sites that might help me. I have painted clear over base and am looking to paint in solid 2 pac.
Yes I have breathing gear.
Any help would be great.
Are there any sites with this info.

Cheers

what sort of info are you after

I thought that painting 2 pac wasn't a viable option for the paint at home job because you need to do it in a spray booth (And with those funny suits). at least that is what every site i have found tends to say, like this one (probly the best i have found on the net) http://www.thebugshop.org/bsfqpnt.htm

but if you can actually do 2 pac at home i'd love to. so proove me wrong.

You dont need a spray booth, it just takes a bit longer to go off.
They say you cant spray at home because you need breathing gear, I have this !!!

or you could hire a booth for about $100 hr, a couple of hours and do it your self,

That link was very good
He says that he painted 2 pac with just a 3M mask, I will be using air fed mask.
As your in Adelaide , I will let you know when it is finished and you can have a look.

As the paint isocynates can enter through the skin and eyes, suits gloves and air fed is the industry standard.

There are cases of spraypainters suffering from isocynate sensitivity.

I personally would not recommend spraying with just a cartridge mask.

The other factor with painting at home is finding the 'dust free environment' for the paint to dry in.

just cruised by the supercheap autos website (to find opening times) anyway in the paint and panel section i found this:

"Hichem Top Coat

A versatile 2 pack isocyanate free clear that offers a tough and durable coating with excellent gloss. Suitable for use over Motospray acrylic laquer colours, Hichem ISO free colours and Hichem 2 pack base coat colours.

Hichem 2 Pack ISO Free

An extremely durable isocyanate free 2 pack exhibiting excellent gloss and colour retention, abrasion resistance and weatherability. It offers excellent resistance to splash and spillage of acids, alkalis, salts, solvents, chemicals and water. "

here is a link: (clicky)

whilst the quality of the paint may be dubious (insomuch as i have no idea how good it is) it pretty much removes the major snag in painting 2 pack at home. the only other sticking point is the long drying time (and hence dust-free environment)

nevertheless an interesting development.
