Can you guys recommend me a good 2k lacquer?
At college we used Kapci but the tutors said it's not that great.
Your help will be much appreciated guys

Kapci  wtf is that
I rate standox or spies hecker. About £300 for 5L of VOC clear plus hardner at around £100 and additive at about £60
Plus vat but your college should get a good discount on it.
Easy clear is also good from standox. Bit cheaper and quicker to apply. Doesn't have the depth of VOC clear though.

Won't be able to get anything through college as we've finished now so just gonna get it on ebay or the local suppliers.
The price you've said is alot more than i expected.
Is the easy clear from standox abit cheaper?
I know that we will get what we pay for but won't be able to afford £400 on lacquer

Thats very cheap that.
I really like the the Du-Pont 3800S but its bloody expensive.
I used some Ixell clerius on my passat which i got for £100 all in for 5L of clear and 5L of hardener.
Flows out really nice but dont know how you would get it out of trade.

What suppliers was that from Graeme?
I've looked at that guys stuff before but wasn't too sure if that was a good deal at the time. Might price up the hardener seperately for the standox one.
My nearest suppliers is Derek Jones in Islip.

Just found the stuff you mentioned on ebay under f1 renault parts..
Also been to nu-agane and sayers as that's where we got the paint for Jodie's new wheels. Good guys over there tbh.
Showed us one of the meeting rroms with the special finish paints like metal/rubber/leather.
I'll possibly give mkpe a call tomorrow.

That's verometal. I went in the training course for that. A lot of work and expensive. But can look good.
