Application Tips and Best Practices

Standard Mr. Color Thinner works perfectly for general airbrushing and hand-painting applications. Use leveling thinners when you need ultra-smooth finishes on large surfaces or when applying gloss coats. Retarders are essential for humid conditions or when you need extended blending time. Always thin paints gradually to achieve your desired consistency, and ensure proper ventilation when working with lacquer-based products. Aqueous thinners offer a lower-odor alternative for water-based paint systems while maintaining excellent flow characteristics.
