I bought some paints so i can spray a few things to go on my coupe. The paint place gave me acrillic paints. But the clear coat uses a hardener?? does this mean its a 2pac clear coat??

Also Do i mix thinners with the Hardener and clear, because the hardener is 2parts to one part clear??

If i do have to add thinners whats the ratio ???? one to one??

Sounds like urethane - base coat / clear coat - uses an acylic base mixed 1:1 with thinner then a clear topcoat mixed usually 2:1 or 4:1 with hardener - and up to 10% reducer ..
Where can i get more info on this?
the last clear coat i used on my bumper has cracked all over the place!
