Selectapanel next to mine is cheap and have it mixed up ready to go

Try the autofactor style industrial units (much cheaper) :thumb:

30quid for a litre is pretty dear..my dad used to get it for ?17 a litre when he was spraying all the time..i have found a website 2mins ago..?66 for 5 litres of 2k white with hardener also..just dont know if i trust them..never heard of them before.

think I paid about ?50 for 4 Litres of 2K white BUT that was a cash no recipt deal from my local spray shop ;)

but lets not forget you need thinners/hardener and all that otehr crap that knocks the cost up.

?17 a litre sounds like cellulose prices.

again u get what you pay for.

you buy cheap you get piss thin paint, add activator and thinners ans its even thinner.

so you use more paint to cover as opposed to more expensive thicker paint that will cover in two coats easily.

bear that in mind
