Hello,

I have just ordered some 2k non-isocyanate paint for the land rover.

I was thinking of using a roller to apply the paint.

The instructions say 1 litre paint, 500ml harder and 15% thinner. This is for spraying, would i need more or less thinner for rolling?

Also apparently i can wet and dry with 2000 grit and then clear coat to get a deep sign. Is this advisable considering its a land rover and it wont ever have perfect body work?

Cheers
 
I have done this with 2k paint at work on folklifts.
You shouldnt need a clear coat.
2k buffs out ok.
Just have to watch out for tiny air bubbles you get in the paint, dont over roll.
Paint goes off fast on the roller.
I would think less thinner would be best.
