Re: Thinner

I don't use thinner on diecasts. If you're looking to remove tampos (permanent decals) use finger nail polish remover. If you want to get rid of the paint use paint stripper.

I buy my paint from wal-mart. I'm sure Mike can reccommend some good paints for you.

Re: Thinner

The thinner is used for thinning paint to airbrush and spray through paint guns. Certain paints require thinners. Im working on a paint tutorial that will cover that stuff. If you want more info on what I am talking about visit the Car Detailing forum in Cars In General (search for paint process).

Dupli-color, Wally World, NAPA, Pep Boys, Auto Stores.
