| Subject: | Grumbacher odorless thinner over acrylics |  |
| Date: | May 11, 2008 |
| From: | Jason | |
I have used Grumbacher odorless thinner with oil paint for years now with great results over Tamiya and PollyScale acrylics. I can literally do an oil wash over the Tamiya undercoat after only 5-10 minutes drying time because the Grumbacher thinner is so mild. Every other thinner I have tried doing this with has damaged the paint to one extent or another. Yeah I know I could let the paint dry a bit longer before messing around with the oil wash, but I have little patience. Grumbacher thinner is usually found with the oil paints in craft and art stores like Michaels and maybe Hobby Lobby. Oh, and unlike some other "odorless" thinners, Grumbacher really is odorless.
