What is the difference between 1K and 2K lacquer?

1K is air dry and easy to use. 2K uses a hardener for higher chemical resistance, better durability and faster through-cure. Choose 2K for demanding finishes.

How long should I wait before clear coating over basecoat?

Follow the product data sheet. Many basecoats accept clear after 15 to 30 minutes at room temperature, once touch-dry but within the recoat window.

Gloss, satin or matt – which finish should I choose?

Gloss maximises depth and shine, satin gives a soft sheen and matt is non-reflective. Match the finish to the look and the surrounding parts.

Paint Lacquers

Lock in colour and add protection with the right clear coat. Use 1K lacquer for simple jobs and touch-ups, or step up to 2K lacquer when you need higher chemical resistance and durability. Choose gloss, satin or matt to match surrounding parts. Apply light, even coats and respect flash times for a smooth, high-quality finish.

Check the product data sheet. Typically clear within 15 to 30 minutes at room temperature when the basecoat is touch-dry and within the recoat window.

Gloss for maximum depth and shine, satin for a soft sheen and matt for a non-reflective look. Match the finish to adjacent parts for consistency.
