HI, i have some questions about painting a car. I am trying to learn how to paint.
1. What are the ratios of mixing 2k primer. Ex: like 41
2. What are the ration of mixing paint
3. What else do you mix with base coat to thin it out and how much
4. What else do you mix with clear coat.
5. Is both paint and primer use a low pressure hose.
If someone can help me with this question, I would really really appreciate it. Thank you soo much whoever helps me!!

It all depends on the paint, and reducer. A lot of it is just practice and learning. I can mix by eye, so I dont know what the ration is. Be sure to use the correct reducer for the paint/clear/primer.
Paint and primer are usually sprayed from 30-50PSI.
