Default Eurosport Owners - Paint help

Well, As i can see from many of the post, many have had the same problems with their kit as mine. Broke wings and several fuselage cracks. (You would think that this would be evaluated and taken care of by now.) Anyway, I got some touch up paint and need to repair the bad areas.
Does anyone have the mix ratio for the touch up paint. I am having a very difficult time getting it and could use it tonight.
Thanks guys,

(Touch up paint supplied from Composite Arf factory)

I mixed it 1 to 1. I was not real pleased with the outcome, as it really needed to be thinned a little. I didn't know what I could use to thin it and I didn't have enough paint to experiment with.
But it turned out OK after I polished it out.

I was painting the entire nose and used a panel line as the joint. If you are just going to touch up the repair areas, I would wait until you can find out the correct ratio and what you can use to thin it. It may turn out that you can use more catalyst to thin it.
