never heard of that one mate,er look on the back of the tin it should show some small pictures ie a picture of a spray gun telling film thickness,one what grade paper to flat it with and one showing mixing ratio, it will say something like 4.1.1 or 3.1.1 or similar if this looks like this it is a two pack material but it DOES need the hardener that goes with the tin in a seperate container if it is two pack ,give me more info on what it says on the back of the tin Il try and answer better for you

had another look on the tin the sticker on the back of the tin is harmful and highly flamable the sticker on the front says gip gloss aps 3 primer filler beige the tin also has spies hecker and the address around the bottom of the tin that it hope that helps

cheers

Still not a 100 precent certain but spies hecker materials are good quality and highly likely to be a two pack material.Find the spies hecker website and contact them or a supplier and double check Im not sure on the product name to be 100 per cent.If probably is 2 pack and If so you will need to buy the correct hardener for it wont cost that much. ask mix ratio ie how many parts paint to hardener eg ask is it 3to 1 to1 or four to one to one?Ask the supplier with those words if you ask how do you mix it? They will not think you are pro and might not sell it to you ask like as above and they will think you are clued with it. Please wear at least a good mask there isnt a lot of overspray with this stuff as its thick ,but protect yourself as best as you can
