Five Points Posted January 2, 2017 Share #1 Posted January 2, 2017 I have a large selection of the Model Shipways acrylic paints but had to put my hobby on hold for some time. I am trying to get started again and was wondering if there was a trick to salvaging these paints. They say to thin with water but I'm thinking it may take a little more than that, if even possible. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Bruce Canute and mtaylor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xken Posted January 2, 2017 Share #2 Posted January 2, 2017 Try 90 % Isoprol alcohol from local drug store. It must be the 90% not the regular stuff. I use this rather than water to thin the paint. mtaylor, Five Points, Canute and 1 other 4 Quote Ken Current build: Maersk Detroit" Future builds: Mamoli HMS Victory 1:90 Completed builds: US Brig Niagara, Dirty Dozen, USS Constitution, 18th Century Armed Longboat https://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/11935-uss-constitution-by-xken-model-shipways-scale-1768/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
