    You do know that 2K is a compound of cyanide, dont you??
    When you buy the paint, ask for the data sheets, they're free and they tell you how to mix, what hardener, how much (if any) thinners, how long flash-off, what air/force drying times, what gun setup and anything else you need to know.

    This isn't like pesticided lettuce or bugs in water though.
    Spraying poisonous two pack in an enclosed space needs the full spaceman outfit with air fed into the helmet from outside.
    Spraying outside is daft as it's much much harder to sand out the dust, bugs and next door's children that stick to it before it's dry.

    Your new paint wouldn't dry in the pool though.
