Hardener 25%, thinner 20%-30 and additive 20%-30 I am right sir?

[@EssexSilvering]

Wrong, .... I don't use thinners if I can help it. Most of the top coat I use is very thin to start with, so no thinners needed.

1st mist coat and second coat both are the same coat??
Or it is 1st one is matt coat and second one is clear glossy coat.?

[@EssexSilvering]

Using the same lacquer (violet dye added) give 1 mist coat, leave for 10 mins, then 1 middle to heavy coat to bring the silver shine back to life, then your finished.
