    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Just how bad is 2k paint?

Hello everyone, I tried a search but couldn't narrow it down enough. I just got some 2k paint and clear because I knew 2k stuff is the best to use, but to be honest I never really paid much attention to how toxic it is supposed to be until just now when I read a thread somewhere else saying that the bloke would need very understanding neighbours and would likely get prosecuted by the environment people. Now my neighbours are b*st*rds and I don't need to get prosecuted for anything at the moment, so, How bad is the stuff? I'll just be doing the tank and it will be in my shed, how long does the smell hang around? I've rattle canned and fibreglassed in my garden before and get the creosote out every summer, is this stuff much worse? Thanks in advance, for good news and bad, though preferably good.

The smell shouldn't hang around any longer than your normal rattle can stuff. However the paint is highly carcinogenic. Please protect your lungs and skin while spraying or in the area of.
 
Cheers, forgot to say I have a mask with a hose that goes straight outside that I usually use when I'm welding in there. tkent, I would love to murder my neighbours to enable a perfect paint job, any excuse will do, but there are just too many of them, like a zombie outbreak of new Audi and 5 series BMW owners.
