Product description
With DD Lacquer Metallic, you can easily create a stylish metallic finish. First, apply several coats of DD Paint in your desired base colour, then finish with a single coat of DD Paint Metallic.
Double Coat is a popular two-component polyester lacquer, renowned for its high scratch resistance, excellent UV stability, and long-lasting gloss. This makes it highly suitable for boats, epoxy tables, and many other applications on polyester, epoxy, wood, metal, and plastic.
Features DD Paint Metallic
- Highly UV-resistant.
- Excellent scratch resistance.
- Suitable for spray application.
Directions for use
Always wear the correct protection when using Double Coat paints. Therefore, always use a suitable vapour mask, safety goggles, gloves and protective clothing.
You can process DD Paint according to the following steps:
- Open the base component, stir thoroughly, and weigh the desired amount into a clean mixing cup. Use a (digital) scale.
- Add the hardener in a 67:33 ratio.
- Mix gently, scraping along the sides and bottom of the mixing cup. Allow the lacquer to react for 30 minutes.
- Then add approximately 5-10% Double Coat spray thinner and stir well again.
- Apply the lacquer evenly with a spray gun. For smaller surfaces, such as a waterline, Double Coat Metallic can also be applied with a brush or roller.
- DD Paint will be dust-dry after about 2 hours and fully cured after 5 days.

Gloss level indicates how much light a dry paint or coating reflects and how the finished surface looks.
- Matt: little reflection and a subdued appearance.
- Satin: a gentle sheen between matt and high gloss.
- High gloss: stronger reflections and a more pronounced colour, although surface imperfections may become more visible.
Gloss can be measured in gloss units (GU) at a specified angle. Terms such as matt and satin do not necessarily mean exactly the same thing across manufacturers. Substrate condition and application also affect the final appearance.

The period for which an unopened product remains usable under the specified storage conditions. Check whether the period starts from the manufacturing date or another date. Shelf life may be shorter after opening, especially for products sensitive to air or moisture.
- 12 months
-
Mixing ratio indicates how much of each component is needed, for example resin (A) and hardener (B). A ratio of 100:50 by weight means 100 grams of A to 50 grams of B; by volume you might use millilitres. Weight and volume ratios are not necessarily the same because the components may have different densities. Accurate measuring is important for proper curing.
- 67:33 (by weight)

Curing time is the period a product needs to reach a specified stage of cure. It is usually given in hours or days, often at a reference temperature such as 20 °C. A product may be tack-free or safe to handle before reaching its full mechanical and chemical resistance. Film thickness and mixed quantity may also affect the time.
- Approximately 5 days
-
Consumption or coverage describes how much product is needed for a given surface area. Consumption may be stated in g/m² or kg/m², while coverage is often given in m²/L or m²/kg. A consumption of 0.2 kg/m² means a theoretical 200 grams per square metre. Actual use depends on film thickness, substrate absorbency, application method and waste.
- Approximately 125 g/m²
-
A specific thinner that can be used, where permitted, to adjust a product's application properties or viscosity. The correct thinner and maximum quantity depend on the product. Incorrect thinning can affect coverage, drying and curing.

The application or processing methods specified by the manufacturer, such as brushing, rolling, spraying, casting or hand laminating. The chosen method can affect consumption, layer thickness and finish.

Working time is the period during which a product remains workable after mixing or activation, usually given in minutes at a specified temperature, often 20 °C. With reactive resins, the chemical reaction also continues in the mixing container, and larger quantities or higher temperatures can shorten this time. Working time is different from gel time and full curing time.
- Approximately 120 minutes
