[QUOTE="crjackson, post: 16378858, member: 197502"] At this point I’m probably speaking only to myself, but I’ll update this anyway... After prepping the part and getting ready for the final painting. I found a custom auto paint supplier locally. I asked for aerosol spray can of Acrylic Enamel single stage paint. The guy at the store brought me a can matching UA paint and said it was single stage... See where this is going ...? I couldn’t read the tiny print on the can, and trusted that this paint specialist knew his products... It turns out (after spraying the part) that the paint is a Acrylic Lacquer and of course needs 2k clear coat to finish. I called another paint shop’s 800 number and explained the situation and they recommended SprayMax 2k Clear Glamour 368 0061. The original paint store refunded me for giving me the wrong paint, and had the needed 2k clear as above. So now I need to finish up with clear. How dangerous is it to paint with this clear if done outside? I don’t have a protective mask at all. [/QUOTE]
