Default Dope Retarder

I need to use dope retarder to prevent blushing...spraying Randolph Butyrate in Florida. I do not have retarder close by, and would prefer not to pay four times the price to get it here. Research on the web tells me that Xylol or Xylene works as a suitable substitute.

Any thoughts on this.

Thanks. Dennis

I wouldn't advise it. I've tried several additives beside Xylene and made a mess. Stick to Randolphs. Even though it will cost a little more you'll be glad you did. Good luck.
