SprayMax 2K Matte Clear Coat | 2K Automotive Matte Clear Coat Spray Paint for Cars, Motorcycles & Metal Surfaces | Durable Flat Finish, Chemical & Weather Resistant | Professional Grade 11.2 oz

I do alot of hydrographic dipping, I need a finish I can trust to last. From Matte to High Gloss this stuff works, not only is it tough, but it looks great. I tell all my customers that sure there is more expensive stuff out there, but do they really want me to use it a find out the hard way that it doesn't work as well? ⚠️WARNING ⚠️ make sure whatever you are using it on has been prepared properly and is been decreased or you take the risk of getting fish eyes (bubbles caused by Silicons or oils.). FISH EYES ARE NOT THE FAULT OF THE CLEAR BUT ARE THE RESULTS OF POOR PREPARATION. MAKE SURE YOU USE THIS STUFF IN A WELL VENTED AREA AND ALWAYS WEAR A PAINT RESPIRATOR!!!!!!. if you follow all of the manufacturers recommendations and or watch some videos online you will get a tough long lasting and beautiful finish that you desire.

First of all, this paint is very high-quality and does everything claimed. I have used several cans in different sheens. However, Spraymax claims the pot life is "48 h at 68° F", which I accidentally found out is WAY longer when stored in a fridge. Most who use this know when storing mixed can in a cool area, it will last longer, but not by much -- or so I thought... I accidentally left a can in my fridge for almost three weeks. I figured I would try it just to see what would happen, because surprisingly it was still in a liquid state inside the can. It kind of sprayed, but not well. Same thing that happened when I had tried other cans in the past after about 3-4 days. This time though, it occurred to me to try a new nozzle, and it spray perfectly fine. The paint leveled and cured normally. I couldn't believe it. I still have a bit left, so I'm going to see how long I can push this before it stops working. Considering the price, I'm kicking myself for throwing away previous cans because most of my projects only require about half a can. It seems all I needed to do was to either somehow clean the nozzle, or replace it.

I restored my recently purchased ‘96 Honda Shadow VT1100C2 with SEM Trim Black paint (spray gun style at 25psi), which has a satin finish. It was perfect. I was nervous about using an aerosol matte over the top of such perfect and durable paint, but my senses told me it would be good for longer lasting durability. I took the risk. No one on the interwebs mentioned using this product on SEM Trim Black. I’m Here to tell you that I’m happy I did. With the paint, I applied three coats, 5 minutes apart at 25psi. I warmed up the Spray Max right before I was ready to start spraying the color by soaking it in a bowl of warm water. When it was time to get the van ready for application, I dried the can off very well, shook it for a minute, activated the hardener, shook it for a whole minute, checked the wind with my wet finger, and sprayed. 2 light coats 10 minutes apart and a final light-medium coat. Do not go heavy. Follow 10 minute rule. Follow top coat rules and when your respective manufacturer says it’s safe to spray (don’t spray too soon or a couple hours after top coat or you’ll have problems). Make sure you don’t get overspray on other parts you painted as it will dry to dust and land on the other parts. After 5 days, I wet sanded with 5000 grit sanding pad. Wet sanded. 5000 grit. Do NOT use 1500 or 2000 on matte finish, you’ll destroy it (I sampled the back side of a side fairing and learned this). I wet sanded any areas that had a dusty texture and got it smooth and satin-yyy. Do not leave stripes. Slow, but not too slow sweeps to the left, up a couple inches, to the right, up, etc. so many people do not know how to use aerosols and get on Amazon and complain. Same people can’t adjust a toaster, either. Watch some YouTube videos and do this right and you’ll say man, $20+ a can was worth it!! A pro would charge hundreds for the same finish. I can’t verify the 48 hour shelf life. I also used this over VHT flat black wheel paint on the front forks, rear struts and seat pan with the same awesome results. Did not use on the pipes (they exceed heat rating, go with VHT flame proof paint and clear if you wanna do your pipes). My pictures are pre-wet sand. It only got better after the wet sand and some Flogenix protectant spray.

Best in a can clearcoat i could find. Acts like real automotive clearcoat. Make sure you shake the can very well after you break the seal. Properly mixing any 2 part paint is extremely important for proper performance. I use this clear on sports helmets that I custom paint. Holds up well even after it takes hockey pucks and lacrosse sticks off of it.

I used this clear coat on my rifle, and it turned out quite nice. I put it over a few different camouflage paints, and it still kept it matte just like I wanted. It dried overnight and my rifle now has a good protective coating on it. My only complaint is that on the can it has no instructions on when to apply clear coat and what conditions it must be to put it on. I just put in on when it was around 55 degrees outside, and the paint was about a week dry. I will definitely use this again.

Purchased to put the finishing touch on a recently painted 14 year old Nissan Altima Coupe grill. Prior to using Spraymax 2K Matte, I painted the grill with Sem Trim Black and as I was seeking maximum protection, I did some research and decided to give this product a try -- I am absolutely delighted at the result. As for preparation and application, I wore a respirator and protective goggles and I applied 3 coats with 5 minutes between coats. The coverage from the spray nozzle was excellent and it was very easy to apply - although I did cover my garage with plastic to protect the application area. In short, excellent product and result if you're seeking a matte finish. Be sure to wear protective clothing and gear as this produces an ultra fine mist that sticks to everything.
