2k paint isnt lacquer'd, most new cars vans are all base in clear cause water base needs lacquer'd

Its available in base coat and solid 2k, base coat needs a laquer straight 2k dosn't, with white base and clear is not reccomended because if you base up then a bit of black dust or dirt falls on the base and then laqured in its stuck there and looks horrid, with 2 k its easier to flat out hope this helps.

Most paint used these days is 2k anyway, ul either have white base then 2k laquer or just 2k direct gloss (solid colour)

Yes you can get frozen white in direct gloss but all new focus's etc are base and laquer.
