Guardian.:
steer well clear of 2 pac for all the above reasons, plus once you chip or crack it, and no doubt you will the water gets under it and flakes it all off.
i hate the stuff!, goes on easy and shines no matter what but short lifespan unless your really lucky and have perfect conditions and panels, and you wont.

i thought 2pk had now become 1pk and was safer now ....could be mistaken tho ,

been painting 2 pack for 20 yrs and not encountered that!! must have been really bad prep..


Synthetic will take ages to dry and recoating is a nightmare as was said earlier, whack it on with a brush or roller and if you are not too fussy it will be ok.

2 pack drys quicker and more resiliant and can be recoated once hard. It would be my choice. I am respraying my 110 a panel at a time using cromodex 600 line 2 pack poly which is an industrial style paint but good enough, only £22 per litre + hardner, lots cheaper than car paint. I spray in the garage with a mask and an extractor fan which filters the dust out. I will take the whole truck to work to do the non removeable bits tho.
