Yes, an acrylic clear coat typically requires a hardener, also known as an activator, to properly cure and achieve its full durability and gloss. The hardener initiates a chemical reaction that allows the clear coat to dry and harden effectively, providing better protection and longevity. However, some specific products might be designed as single-component systems that do not need a separate hardener.
