What is 2K paint?
2K paint is a two-component coating made up of a base component and a hardener. These components must be mixed thoroughly before use. Once combined, they create a highly durable coating with strong resistance to mechanical wear and chemical exposure.
- Mixing ratio for coloured epoxy: 10:1 by weight with hardener.
- Mixing ratio for transparent epoxy: 2:1 by weight with hardener.
If you are applying 2 coats, we recommend dividing the paint into 2 equal parts.
What can CAIRCON 2K paints be used for?
2K paints are highly versatile and can be used for a wide range of applications. They are particularly suitable for concrete floors, tile coatings and pool paints. They can also be used for other industrial applications.
What are the advantages of 2K paint compared to other paints?
Compared with standard paints, 2K paint offers greater resistance to scratches, abrasion and chemical exposure. It also dries more quickly and provides better adhesion to the surface. In addition, it is UV-resistant and does not fade as quickly as many other paints.
How do you prepare a surface before applying 2K paint?
The surface must be cleaned thoroughly and free from dirt, grease, oil and other contaminants. It should also be dry and free from dust and loose particles. In some cases, sanding may also be necessary to ensure better adhesion.
