What is the difference between basecoat and 2K automotive paint?

Basecoat provides the vehicle's colour and normally requires a clear coat over it to produce the final gloss and protection.

2K paint is a two-component automotive coating system designed to cure with an appropriate hardener or activator.

The correct product depends on the type of repair and finish required.

Do you sell clear coat and hardener?

Yes. CBS Paint & Panel supplies automotive clear coats, hardeners and activators.

Clear coat provides the transparent protective finishing layer over automotive basecoat, while the appropriate hardener or activator assists with curing and durability.

Always use products according to the manufacturer's instructions and recommended mixing ratios.

Do you sell automotive primers?

Yes. We supply primers and related automotive refinishing products for preparing surfaces before paint application.

The correct primer depends on the surface, repair and paint system being used.
