B004

Converter 1K -> 2K

Converter B 004 1K is an acrylic resin designed to convert GREEN-LINE and KARBON's 1K basecoat systems into 2K acrylic paint. Compatible with solid and metallic, pearl, and xiralic paints, the resulting paint is easy to apply and exhibits no tendency to be patchy or form streaks. The transformed effect is characterized by enhanced intensity. It's crucial to conduct a test panel, as the colour may differ from the original after conversion.
