Questions & Answers

Can you tell me how much thinner should be added to each gallon of paint?

There is no way to tell how much area you are painting but think of it as a variable that has to do with the temperature The paint came out all over the place when I added a very small amount of thinner. I sanded that down and used plain paint without thinner for the second coat, and it worked just fine at 60-65. I anticipate a temperature of 65 degrees, but if it reaches the 70s it will begin to pick up quickly. There is no right or wrong way to use it, just perfecting the balance. Here are some tips to help you.

What is the best way to use this thinner to spray?

In fact, yes. They have a good help desk where you can get information

Is it possible to use the thinner with other clear coat brands?

I would like more clarification on what products you would like to use it with, but I believe you were referring to the clear coat, in which case, it would be fine to use it With a two part varnish, we would not recommend using this product. Thanks for your kind words.

It is unsafe to travel by train
3/5

As I understand it, thinners are extremely flammable, and I was expecting they would come in some kind of container to keep them safe. However, this is not the case. We got the item in such a leaking state that it smelt the entire garage. The box was very wet inside, as I noticed when I opened it. As a precautionary measure, I cut the cardboard and placed it in a plastic bag to minimize the risk of fire. An insufficient seal on the cap was allowing water to leak out. am not sure if this item had been placed on the counter previously or not, but it was extremely dangerous and could have gone up in flames at any time.

With the TotalPotect epoxy, it doesn't work as advertised
3/5

As described, these thinners do not work with Total Protect epoxy at all, nor do Xylene or Xylene-based spray fluids which they suggest should be used. Total Boat's polyurethanes and other materials may also work well with this thinner. The epoxy they use is not suitable for their products.

It is crucial that whoever bottles this thinner does a much better job of it
3/5

The Atlantic BC responded as quickly as they could. When it was delivered, the can was leaking. It was the third time the can had to be replaced. Prior to them getting to me, UPS stopped the first two packages. I am having problems with the bottle. I need someone to do a much better job with this thinner. In my experience, Atlantic BC acted as rapidly as possible to resolve my problem.
I've used their other Jamestown products and have been happy As far as my previous experiences with JT AND AB are concerned, I would have rated them This thinner a1 is one of the best experiences of my life.

It isn't cheap since I bought paint and saw this as a cleaning solution
3/5

Acetone does the same thing and is less expensive.

I'm sure you know how hard it is to pour from a can! You cannot pour brushing thinner from a can that has been opened
3/5

There is so much of it that it spills everywhere. Where did the size come from?.

I have purchased several items from them and have always been pleased with the quality and service. The person who spoke to me was not a paid spokesperson. I'm a.

I could really use a pour if you could purchase one
4/5

If you cannot do that, plan on some spills. It would be helpful if you could buy a pouring spout specifically designed for this can of thinner. When used to thin paint on topsides and clean tools, the product works very well.
