Description

PT146 Thinners are specially blended for the thinning of Coldglaze PRO 2 Clear Gloss.

When the glaze is to be thinned only marginally to help with application via paintbrush, a small amount of Thinners are added during the mixing process of Coldglaze resin and hardener.

If Coldglaze is to be applied via airbrushing, then the glaze needs to be thinned far more considerably.

Once Coldglaze resin and hardener has been mixed, it is recommended to add 20 percent by volume of PT146 Thinners to obtain a suitable viscosity. Adjustments can be made to the mix where necessary depending on the desired finish.

To increase the cure time of Coldglaze, Retarder can be mixed into PT146 Thinners at a ratio of 5 to 10 percent by volume.

Increasing the cure gives the glaze longer to flatten against china, ceramic or pottery, improving the quality of the finish and preventing cobwebbing.

Thinners are also used for the cleaning of paintbrushes used during the glazing process. They remove Coldglaze, acrylics and the SylCreate range of Ultimate Gold & Silver Restoration Paints.

PT146 Thinners are sold in either 1 litre or 5 litre tins.
