It's true.

Full chemical compatibility is a beautiful thing with paints and thinners.
It's possible to get good results sometimes with stuff other than what the manufacturer recommends (and some people really get a kick out of using the cheapest possible thinner that can be made to work

)- but don't mess with other stuff until you've tried the manufacturer's intended thinner for a while
first.

That way, you will know how the paint is really supposed to behave ideally, and you have that base of comparison to judge the paint's performance if you're messing with other formulations.
