Mike 1017 Posted February 18, 2024 Posted February 18, 2024 This the first time that I am gonna use 2k mixing ratio. 3=1. Does that mean 3 ounces of clear to 1 ounce of catalyst? Thanks Mike
Bill Eh? Posted February 18, 2024 Posted February 18, 2024 Usually that would be the interpretation. I have never heard of a product which uses that in reverse, 3 parts catalyst to 1 part clear. Does this clear seller have a website. I believe in double checking things first. LOL
Mark Posted February 18, 2024 Posted February 18, 2024 In addition, two words... ...Safety equipment. Not aiming this at anyone in particular, but in general at everyone thinking about using the stuff. 2

Same info on the website Mike I have the same Splash 2 part clear as well. The bottle of the clear itself, I believe is twice the size of the catalyst. Since it is Splash's product, then yes it is three parts clear to one part catalyst. Make the mixture first and then thin to a good consistency for airbrushing. Wise words from Mark indeed. Use good ventilation and wear a respirator mask if you have one.

No offense but yes the mixture is indeed 3 parts clear to 1 part Catalyst...HOWEVER...there is no need to thin Splash 2K Clear. Once you mix it it is airbrush ready. Definitely wear a good respirator (not just a mask) as the catalyst WILL harm you. This Bronco was painted with Splash paints...primer, paint and gloss 2K Clear over decals and BMF 1

I did read up on 2k and its dangers. Thanks Mike
