How long cant auto paint sit in mixed container, once I add the reducer?

Im using 70 degree reducer,and the temp should be about 70 degrees.





Once I mix the paint and reducer into a container, how long will I have to use it?





Also, will the clear coat and hardener last the same amount of time?

The reason I am asking is because I would like to premix everything before painting, since I am doing a 3 stage paint job, and don't want to wait too long between coats while I am mixing paint.

the paint is good for a few days...but the clear is a BIG NO NO....then again at 70 degrees you'll have to wait a little while between coats anyway...flash time will probably be between 3 and 5 minutes....clearcoat will have even longer flash time between coats...just a tip for your clear, try making a tack coat first( tack coat= spray clear fast and at a distance, gives the second coat something to stick to when you spray a little heavier on second coat) but don't premix the clear...the paint ain't so bad to premix
