In this part of the video, Louis from Elite Fine Finish addresses commonly asked questions about 1K and 2K coatings. He explains that 1K products are ready-to-use straight from the can, typically have a one-year shelf life, and only require stirring before use. These products offer durability comparable to major paint retailers’ offerings and do not yellow over time. They dry quickly and have a pleasing look and feel, making them suitable for residential cabinets. Louis then discusses 2K products, indicating that they can either be used on their own or catalyzed with a waterborne catalyst. Catalyzing these products enhances durability and accelerates drying time, but once mixed, they have a limited pot life of two to four hours.
