The formula adjusts viscosity and enhances clarity so colours spray evenly, while remaining compatible with Vallejo acrylics and many water-based model paints. Packaged in an r-PET recycled plastic bottle, this compact 6.76 fl oz container suits both studio desks and on-the-go painting sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this thinner improve airbrushing performance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen added to acrylics, this thinner reduces surface tension and viscosity so paint passes through the airbrush nozzle more uniformly. That leads to fewer clogs, less splattering, and finer atomization, which helps preserve painted detail on small models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDilute up to 25% for stable spray patterns and consistent coverage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces nozzle buildup and spatter for cleaner passes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImproves colour transparency for glazing and layering techniques.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it for brush painting, and how much should I add?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — this thinner is formulated for both airbrush and brush work.
