it looks like it is solid black (but dont hold me too that) and without laquer your paints not going to last very long.

if its solid black u dont need laquer, i am sure for example if u get paint from halfords its one that does not require a laquer!

i have painted one part for corsa c and did not use laqyer, just straight 2k solid jet black and matched perfect!

same with a corsa b i painted front bumper and did it solid 2k black with no laquer and perfect match! the laquer is kind of in the paint also with 2k solid colours...........i think
