Thinner for Alclad...
I had some that was drying up in the bottle, just wondering if anyone had success rethining this stuff? what thinner did you use?

Re: Thinner for Alclad...
The guy at my store said that Alclad is alcohol based you could try that but it says on the bottle that thinning is not recommended

Re: Thinner for Alclad...
Lacquer thinners should work, I doubt alcohol would be a good idea

Re: Thinner for Alclad...
lacquer and alcohol based are 2 different things, Alclad is a lacquer.
I'm with the Scrutinzer on this one.... |

Alclad makes an airbrush cleaner...that might work in small amounts. As far as it being a laquer...sure smells like it...just like nailpolish.

I have a few friends who have used Alclad for years and they have always used Acetone to thin it with very good results.
