You'll need to buy thinners for it. Acrylic thinners is heaps cheap.

Considering it's Acrylic you dont need to put clear on it as i have been told.

and it's concept paint by KnH.

If it's basecoat you will need to clear it. If it's direct gloss you wont need to.

For the record Concept Paints make decent paint. They have their own line of products...

http://www.conceptpaints.com.au/ would be the place to go to check up. Just because if you get the wrong paint to paint a car with and you dont match the primer/basecoat/topcoat/clearcoat with the right hardener and thinners, the results can be tragic, which would be no good. From a quick check i cant see a metallic topcoat so i would think it is basecoat. But best to check.

Good luck with the sale, i hope ive helped :(

all metalics need a clear coat. be it 2pk or acrylic. unless you want to have a very dull paint which wont show much because the clear coat brings out the twinkle in metalics.

you can mix clear in with acrylic after the metalic has been thinned if you wanted to but still needs clear. best results is to mix in a bit of clear with the last colour coat and then apply clear coats over that.

how come your selling the paint? are you painting your car another colour now?

Nearly finished painting my 32 and I needed 6 litres of grey metallic, I doubt you'll get away with painting a whole car with 2 litres unless you do a VERY thin basecoat and a heap of clear. With acrylic, I reckon its good to do about three wet coats then another two double thinned coats to settle the flake, then around five clear coats to allow for sanding/buffing.

I suggest using a clear over it as it's easier to buff if you get scratches and stuff in it later, plus the clear over base gives the paint a really nice depth.

Would be a nice lot of paint for someone to buy for a motorbike respray :yes:

I was meant to be 2Pk instead of aryclic because my primer was 2pk. so i grabbed the wrong kind of paint. Got my car done and EASILY got 3 coats out of 2L of paint!! You just add reducer making it 4L 50% 50%

    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
    • Probably a smart choice to buy one vs build, purely for the motivation part as you said! Imagine the metal dust everywhere from grinding all the steel to build one. Ha ha ha!   Also, post a photo of your garage.   Mine is below, this is where I've been cleaning and have already half filled a caged 6*4 trailer. And this is after my cleaning expedition mentioned previously... The middle normally has a car in it, but I'm dumping things in the middle as I sort through them. And poor skyline was dusty and has had the lightest few drops of rain and now it looks atrocious and needs to be dragged back out and washed thoroughly! And yes to the right is technically another bay, you really can only see 2 bays out of 3 in this picture.
