I used the thinner the auto parts store sold me. Since I am pretty empty headed about paint in general, I pretty much hadda follow their instructions.
Any of you guys try Nelson paints yet? I talked with .Mmr Nelson on the phone last year` and his process sounds pretty easy and neat. If I remember correctly, it wasnt the cheapest paint out there though. Here is a link if you have never` been there. I am curious about what others have experianced with Nelsons.
