Are you asking or telling ?
We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm

They are a true 2k & they sure work just fine. The cans have a built in activator, once activated you get between 6 & 24 hrs (depending on specified cure times) before they harden inside. I've used Spraymax & Eastwood products with the activator button, superb results every time, never had a problem with petrol, oil etc. Can't speak for the cheaper one's though as not tried them, but like most things, you generally gets what you pays for & I personally prefer to stick with proven products. As a side note - Do Not Use without a proper 2k mask, this s**t will kill you dead ! :evil:

Spraymax are 400ml, enough to do a tank & the top frame section on a Lamby (just). Check this vid on the tube from Coast Airbrush,
the guy is pretty slick, but actually quite engaging & explains in detail all you need to know. Really worth watching in full, but skip to
about 8.00 if you're only interested in the 2k can

As said, the cans have an device on the bottom of the can which releases the activator into the lacquer. I used one from an ebay supplier and it was fine, managed 2 coats on a PX side panel and 4 coats on the PX headset cover. According the blurb on the can, the 'working time' was dependant on temperature so I put it in the fridge and found it still usable 2 days later 8-) All hardened off now and a cracking smooth finish, the photos are before polishing, no orange peal at all:
