2-pack hasn't been around that long so assume it's cellulose.

We have come a long way since the days of cellulose paint,and in my opinion modern day paints are a lot better and with the EU directive it is becoming a lot more difficult to obtain .Some places will no longer sell it to you direct.Even 2K is slowly becoming a thing of the past ,with everywhere leaning towards water based .
I've even known of vehicles that have been painted with B&Q/Tesco /Halfords and any tin from the garden shed with amazing results.It's a question of what type of paint is on there and what will cover it without any reactions.
