2k paint purchased on-line? Where/any good?

[John]

Hi all, i'm think at having a bit of a go at painting some bits i have. Unfortunately there's no decent paint suppliers near that i can reach in my lunch half hour, so i'm thinking of buying on-line. (not halfords). Anyone done this before? what was the colour match like?
I have lots of more painting questions, but i'll leave that for another thread!

eBay, just search the colour name, Eg, Glacier White etc

Feel free to pm for a little advice Im sure I may be able to point you in the right direction.

Cheers bax, that looks ok, price not bad either. Not too sure if the matches for 45L are correct though.

i just need to tidy the lower valance up a bit, i'm hoping i can have a go myself without it looking too bad. I have a gravity fed gun and a mask, so i'm willing to have a go!
Thanks for the offer of advice nick, i feel i may be needing it!lol :thumb:

tbh mate if i wanted paint/bodywork doing i would rather go and have a chat with a few guys who know there stuff (or maybe as you find out DONT know there stuff) and get a few pointers than order blind of some interweb g33k

am I right in thinking that to spray 2k you have to have an outside vented mask, as opposed to cellulose where you just need a filtered mask...

or am i getting confused?

2k is the deadly stuff you dont even want that on your skin let alone in your lungs, cellulose is much safer to use.

I've never sprayed 2k, but have a half litre for touching up around the sport, it is great covering paint but boy does it stick!! Overspray would be a nightmare to get off I'd imagine...
