So its been around a week and the hardtop CA was touch dry after about a day. Though after a nearly a week it still isn't truely hard, can be scratched with a finger nail.
I may try some other parts and lay it really thinly, I will use my wet film comb to check the film thickness this time...
I have just sprayed some parts in jotun hardtop ca yesterday after it was suggested when I wanted my chassis parts to be more glossy over the jotamastic. They have come out really glossy and the paint has laid well. I will report back today once I've checked it has hardened OK. I am a novice and...
Thanks for the replies. Hardtop XP seems to contain isocyanate. Hardtop CA does not, has anyone used this as a topcoat?
What is the finish of 2k Paints that have been brushed like?
If not I will go the chassis paint route

Hi,
Looking for a glossy black top coat for Jotamastic 87. This will be for all chassis parts
I know 2k black is the ideal solution, but I do not have an aired mask or forced ventilation.

Unfortunately the parts have been primed for around a year now...
Hi, Will be using jotamastic 87 on all chassis parts. After reading many threads on it I have a few additional questions.

I also want to topcoat over it and was thinking of using an enamel paint. Will this be OK over the top, no...

Do isocyanate free 2k paints still have the same characteristics as normal 2k?
I am liking the idea of isocyanate free 2k epoxy primer as it eliminates the worry of something going wrong as I will be spraying in my garage.
I know jotsun 87 is isocyanate free and will be using this on my...

I am looking at the wolf dakota 100 especially when ukhs have a vat free weekend over the bank holiday. Any one got any views on this compressor...
Hello,
You have probably had this question asked many times but what is the best compressor I can get for a budget of a max £200.
I have been reading and seem to get two views you need at least 3hp compressor (which seems to be out of my budget) or you will be fine with a small compressor...
It was for quite a while as I was attempting to fill a 3-4mm hole.
My own stupid fault. From now on I wont use the grind function on the helmet and use my safety goggles for grinding.
Just been welding and was grinding the weld down. Then thought that could do with welding a little more. Stupid me left the grind function on the welding mask while welding up a hole. The mask isnt fully clear on grind function and has some sort of filter (will this of helped me?). WHen I first...
