Its its oil based then; Acetone
Mineral turpentine (turps)
True turpentine
Naphtha
White spirit
Methyl ethyl ketone
If its acrylic/water based then water
The liquid used to thin paint is called solvent. :)
You can thin water-based paint with water prior to spraying. Follow label directions to ensure that it is not over-thinned.
Yes use 1 part water to 10 parts paint.
NO, they are not compatible.
For thinning enamel paint,yes.
If you are using latex, thin with water. If using enamel, thin with paint thinner.Always read instructions on the can. They always say what to thin it with.
yes, you can thin paint to use like stain. just thin with what ever you would clean it with. waterbase paint use water. oil base paints use thinner.
Yes, you can
No, you use water to thin latex paint. Thinner is for oil based paint.
Paint thinner is nearly alwys used in oil based paints. If you mix it with mosts acrylic paint the paints it will be ruined - unless of course you have a solvent based acrylic - such as a thermoplastic acrylic.
Water borne paint can only be thinned with, guess what? Water.

That is what it is made for

If indoors use emulsion Matt or silk depending on what finish you want.

Thin out the paint for color match
Scumble paint is a layer of thin paint over another paint. The instructions will be on the tin.
Acrylic paint is a fast drying paint containing pigment. It is safe to dilute it with water, but will become water resistant after drying. A common interior house paint may contain both acrylic and latex paint, because acrylic paint is typically more expensive.
You could, but if you have some 100% acrylic solid stain, you would get better results since you wouldn't need to thin it nearly as much as a paint. If you have to use paint, instead of diluting with water, dilute with a latex paint conditioner like Flo-trol as much as possible. Water will break down the binder if used to over thin the paint causing the solids to powder over time. Even better, use fabric dye unless you are trying to achieve a design that requires paint.
