those 2k paint are just brand gimmick, real 2k paint have to use within 24hrs after mixing. you want good effect & long lasting you have to buy those A + B type paint and use an airbrush. Then after finish you have to use Hand Polisher machine + polishing compound to get smooth & clear finish. then after that need to apply wax.

you already spent so much money repainting the exterior that is why i tell you to get a new Lamp Cover or New Lamp.

you never done it before you gonna make a big mess and potentially spoil your new paint job. Spraying paint takes skills.

that is why i tell you to forget it just get the new parts since they are cheap & effective.

if you think it's just simply sand, spray and done you are wrong.

if you really want to DIY i suggest you go Ace hardware get UV protection clear gloss for Marine & Boats. it cost rm99 for 1 can. if you want to skimp on cheap clear coat might as well just replace the headlamp. Either choose Lacquer or Polyurethane. Cheap lacquer will look cheap & uneven.

rm99 for 1 can clear gloss, or rm99 for 1 headlight. your choice.

also spray paints are hazardous, if you want to spray then you need a eye goggle & gas mask. eye goggle Daiso sell rm5.90. 3M gas mask (vapor + dust filter) cost rm200++.
