FAQs
What is Mr.Colour Thinner used for?
It is used for thinning Mr.COLOR paints and cleaning brushes and tools used with Mr.COLOR paints.
Can I use Mr.Colour Thinner with other paint brands?
No, it is specifically designed for use with Mr.COLOR paints. Using it with other brands may result in poor performance or damage.
How much thinner should I add to the paint?
The amount of thinner required depends on the application method (airbrushing or brush painting) and the desired consistency. Start with a few drops and gradually add more while mixing until you achieve the desired consistency.
How do I clean my airbrush with Mr.Colour Thinner?
Disassemble the airbrush and use the thinner to clean each part thoroughly. Use a cleaning brush or cotton swabs to remove any paint residue. Rinse with thinner until clean.
How should I store Mr.Colour Thinner?
Store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed when not in use.
Is it safe to use Mr.Colour Thinner?
Always work in a well-ventilated area. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves and a respirator, to avoid inhaling fumes and protect your skin.
Troubleshooting
Paint is not flowing smoothly through the airbrush.
Add a few more drops of thinner to the paint and mix thoroughly. Ensure the airbrush is clean and free from any blockages.
Brush strokes are visible after painting.
Thin the paint further before applying with a brush. Apply thin, even coats, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next.
Brushes are stiff and difficult to clean.
Soak the brushes in the thinner for a few minutes to loosen the paint. Gently massage the bristles to remove any remaining paint residue, then rinse thoroughly.
