westhemann Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 I use xylene with the catalyzed varnish,but that's just because it's cheaper than the other recommended thinner...but it's just a thinner... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Workingman Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 From a safety standpoint acetone is safer. Still proper ventilation and a respirator are the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob123 Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 I went with the "thinner is thinner" approach and used acetone to thin. 10% shouldnt make a whole bunch of difference really, right? Anyway first coat went on today after practicing on some peices first. Dont worry, just doin the top first to keep the glitter in one peice rest of it is going matte black.
