Painting and Spray Paint Accessories

Accuracy is vital when working with 2K paint systems. A slight error in the mixing ratio can mean your paint fails to cure properly, remains soft, or loses its gloss. Professional mixing cups feature clearly marked, accurate ratios that help you hit the precise mixing measurements required by paint manufacturers. Using them ensures consistency across all your work and prevents the waste associated with guessing ratios.

If you are new to painting, we recommend starting with a set of calibrated mixing cups, a variety of mixing sticks, and a stock of paint strainers. A set of high quality cleaning cloths and a professional spray gun cleaning kit are also indispensable. These basic items will significantly improve the quality of your work and help you develop good habits that are essential for achieving professional level results on every project.

To keep your accessories in top condition, clean them immediately after use. Leaving paint to dry on mixing sticks, funnels, or strainers makes them difficult to clean and often ruins them. For plastic accessories, a rinse with a compatible solvent or water (depending on the paint type) is usually sufficient if done while the paint is still wet. Proper care of your accessories prevents cross contamination and saves you money in the long term.
