[QUOTE="kevster30, post: 105935, member: 10"] To answer your questions: All paint systems today are clearcoat systems unless stated otherwise. 2K paint is a system that consists of 2 components: (a) base coat(color) and (B) clearcoat. The clearcoat serves two functions (1) To provide gloss and depth and (2) protect the base coat as the clearcoat from reputable companies have UV inhibitors in them. Single stage paint (no clearcoat) can look better and outshine 2K systems but are extremely sensitive and require a lot of care. Glasurit is a reputable manufacturer that produces premuim quality paint. When a painter claims to use Glasurit, check that all components( putty, hardener, thinner, primer, base coat, clear coat) are all from Glasurit. Be careful as 98% of painters DO NOT use complete Glasurit components as the substitute some components(esp thinner) with local ones as it gives them a healthier profit margin. Also, Glasurit does provide warranty against their paint quality. Check with your painter. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
