Technology
Patented 2K Technology from the spray paint can – Made in Germany
The new 2-component technology formula that was specially developed for the DIY market is completely different to conventional spray can technology and offers the DIY sector many new and improved application possibilities with respect to quality, processing and painting results.
The 2K PRO spray paint technology is based on the patented and proven ‘can-in-a-can system’ with a separate, integrated hardener cartridge and, in particular, an innovative hardener system formulation.
Product benefits
Stronger adhesion. Connection and wetting. Durable result quality
Compared to conventional 1-component products, the interaction of the 2 components, paint and hardener, delivers a much higher premium quality that is distinguished by:
- UV and weather resistance
- Fuel and solvent resistance
- Very good adhesion
- High wear and scratch resistance
- Excellent anti-corrosion properties
2K Technology
2K technology – 2 products in one can
Definition
- 2K PRO technology comprises 2 components, paint and hardener, in one spray paint can
- The hardener is integrated in a separate closed cartridge
- The hardener is activated or released at the push of a button and mixed with the paint material
- The 2K PRO technology guarantees excellent product and result quality, on a par with workshop paintwork with a painting gun
Advantages
- No oxygen penetration thanks to the self-contained system, which means longer processing time
- The hardener is dosed precisely, no mixing errors
- Safe and operator-friendly triggering / activation process
Operating instructions
Step 1
Establish whether the correct product is available. If the wrong product has been activated, the can can no longer be used if it is not applied or once the potlife has expired.
Step 2
Before actvation, shake can thoroughly for 2 minutes again from when the shake balls are heard.
Step 3
Remove the can button from the cap and place it straight on the pin in the bottom of the can. Put the can back on a firm, horizontal surface with the can button at the bottom.
Step 4
Press the can down with even pressure. Listen for a cracking sound. Press only once.
Step 5
If several cans are used, dispose of the white release buttons immediately so that it is clear which ones have been triggered already.
Step 6
Label the can with the respective aactivated date and time. The potlife stated in the technical information sheets applies at 20°C ambient temperature. The potlife varies depending on the ambient temperature. Higher temperatures reduce the pot life, lower temperatures will prolong it.
Step 7
Shake can thoroughly for at least 2 minutes from when the shake balls are heard.
Schritt 8
Pull off the spray nozzle after removing the can cap. Insert a screwdriver between the strap and the lock ring. Lever out the lock gently with a downwards movement. The can is only functional and ready for spraying after this.
Step 9
Spray paint and check product. When test spraying, ensure that the aerosol can sprays evenly and cleanly. Check the colour tone of coloured spray paint cans.
Schritt 10
Observe the processing time - the period in which the 2K PRO can may be used. The respective processing times are stated on the product label and the technical data sheet. The product may no longer be used after the processing time has expired!
Step 11
After the end of a work step, the valve and the spray nozzle are turned upside down and sprayed empty. After activation, the can may be used within the stated processing time.

Spray lock and settable spray nozzle
Safe storage
2K PRO products are equipped with a spray lock. This prevents unintentional spraying. After shaking, the spray lock is removed and, after use, replaced to ensure safe storage.
Optimised working
The spray jet can be steplessly set on the spray nozzle, from a horizontal jet through to a vertical spray jet. This optimises work and handling processes depending on the object and the position that is to be sprayed.
