200ml of 2pak
100ml avtivator
30ml thinners

2:1 means mix it two parts paint with one part activator, then add 10% thinners to the final amount

2k is meant to get a finnish out the gun, i.e. no nead to base then lacquer
cellulose is normaly a basecoat which then needs laquered

advantages:
2k builds higher than celle
celle is air drying

dissadvantages:
2k takes a while to dry unless it is baked in an oven
2k is a carcegenic, make sure you use an air fed mask
celle takes more work to get a finish on
