goodtimesfishing Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 Have any of you guys tried a clear coat called "spray max 2k"? It is suppose to be automotive grade urethane and it is in a 2 part spray can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodieb8 Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 we use urethanes everyday. great topcoats on plastics. use a respirator and blowers system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted November 15, 2015 Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 It looks like an aerosol can spray system for a two part urethane, with the parts mixed in the can before use. My question is this: after you mix the 2 parts in the can, how long is the pot life for the resulting finish? My thinking is that it would be a limited time period and that the finish is designed for single use projects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodtimesfishing Posted November 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 Bobp- I read that the pot life depends on the ambient temperature. Higher temp less life, cooler temp longer life. It stated that at 20 degrees Celsius(68 Fahrenheit) it has a pot life of 48hrs. That is from the manufacturer. Read in another place that it last anywhere from 2 days to a week if kept cool. I was actually surprised that it would last that long considering it is a 2 part mix.

woodieb8 Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 I'm confused. is it a pre-mixed spray bomb or a 4to1 mix urethane. if its auto-motive 4to 1 pot life for spay is approx. 3 hours depending om temps.. one thing automotive clears don't yellow and are uv clear. as said though . respiaters and blower is needed.

goodtimesfishing Posted November 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 It is a single can with a extra chamber inside......then there is a button on bottom of can that when activated it combines the 2. You are suppose to shake can for 2 minutes before activating and 2 minutes after activating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 I wish you could get Dick Nite's urethane in a spray can. Is there a problem putting moisture cure urethanes in spray cans? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 Wouldn't think so Hughesy, but it would need an inert propellant like nitrogen/argon, which is used in Bloxygen aerosol finish saver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
