right thinner for paint?

ok i airbrush most of the stuff for my models so i went out to buy a lot of thinner instead of all the little things. i went to lowes and asked what was the best thinner for enamels. she gave me this stuff made my klean-strip it says paint thinner made with mineral spirits. it says thins oil-based paint. is the enamels and arcyrlics i use oil-based? or actually, will this paint work right for thinnin my paints?

It will work with enamels, as they are oil - based.

If you use that thinner with acrylics it will be like mixing oil and water, you'll get nothing. Acrylics are water or alcohol based.

I use the Strip Kleen lacquer thinner for my enamels. And all of my clean up.

Even to thin acrylics when I spray them, but don't put acrylic paint thinned with lacquer thinner back in the bottle, it will separate and gum up in less than a week.

Mineral Spirits has it's uses, but I find it slows the already snails pace at which enamels dry even more. Lacquer thinner helps them dry faster and eventually harder... - Mark
