using G thinner instead of liquid thinner?
Permalink   

You can use the Genisis gel type thinner instead of the liquid cant you? I hate the liquid, not only because of the danger of inhailing it but it evaporates so fast too. I used the gel to mix with the last layer of paint and I think it went on better and looks better. What do you all think??

I haven't tried it yet, but I have been meaning to. I hear it eliminates the chalkiness as well.

Yes, but Genesis warns that you should not use more than 40% thinner to paint ratio. You can also use it in combination with liquid thinner (just don't use as much liquid). :)
