2 pack paint

I had all the fiberglass painted a couple of years ago in 2 pack
and now have some little repairs to touch in,
I have the paint, and some thinners, so can i mix them up and paint it on ?
i do not have the activator, so will the paint harden with out using any activator?

I do not want to spray anything, and i am aware of the health risks of two pack are !

No. It won't harden, it'll stay sticky and horrible. Trust me, I've checked this out ...

Here we go again!

It's not only the spraying that's a hazard, you need to make sure you have suitable protection when mixing 2K as well.

A search will reveal masses of info/debate on here





It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......

If you can scrounge so activator (shouldn't be hard, if you pass by brighton pop in and collect some) then mix up 2-3 parts paint to 1 part activator, you wont need thinners if brushing. For touch-ups you are talking teaspoon quantities.
Wear rubber gloves if you are messy. Don't paint yourself with it either.
