Different paints require different amounts of hardener. If there is a label on the paint it should have the ratio on that. One part hardener to the about of paint you use will usually be enough. You can't store the paint after the hardener is in it, it will set up in the can. ----- In actuality a 1:1 mixing ratio of paint to hardener (catalyst) will usually result in brittle massively overcatalyzed paint that will flake and/or chip easily. However as previous stated different paints require different amounts of hardener, alway request a Product Data Sheet (PDS) or Technical Data Sheet (TDS) from the paint manufacturer or retrieve one from their website before mixing.
yes
That would depend on what type of auto paint. With base coat on most brands, the drying time is controlled by which solvent you use to thin the paint. With acrylic enamel it's drying time is controlled with solvent and a hardener.
There is a formula used to calculate how much paint you need to paint a room. Determine what the square feet of the room you are painting is and multiply it by the number of coats you want to put on the walls. Divide that number by 400 and you will end up with the number of gallons of paint you need. The other choice is to use an online paint calculator.
it is the thing that you put the paint on when you are painting a painting

the paint will crack a lot easier compare to the right mixture..
yes
There are toxic chemicals in nail hardener so it should not be put on teeth. Nail hardener is for nails only and will make them stronger.
no
The never paint will never harden, mostly stay tacky
Curing agents for polythene paint typically consist of a catalyst and a hardener. The catalyst initiates the curing process by promoting chemical reactions, while the hardener helps crosslink the polymer chains to form a durable coating. Common ingredients include isocyanates, amines, and other additives to control the curing process and improve the performance of the paint.
The amount of hardener needed to mix with enamel paint typically depends on the specific product and the manufacturer's instructions. Generally, a common ratio is around 4 parts enamel to 1 part hardener, but this can vary. Always refer to the label or technical data sheet of the specific enamel you are using for precise mixing ratios. Proper mixing is crucial for achieving optimal performance and durability of the finish.
dont use can spray paint it wont hold up to gasoline. paint does not have any paint hardener in it
No, acetone is not a hardener for resin
Both, strangely enough. Applying the paint to the car is a physical change. The paint is a polyurethane compound. When you get it, it's in at least two containers - the paint, and a hardener. Stir them together and they undergo a chemical change.
This depends on the type of paint. You will have to follow those directions. The colour coat I used recently does not use thinner. The clear coat used 25% thinner and 25% hardener.
