What can I use to thin this stuff? Do I need to?

I read the sheet that came with it and of course it says"For thinning use POR-15 Thinner" Not alot of help when I planned to spray it this weekend.


Thanks in advance.

just the thinner from por15 will work

The stuff I got from Por15 said that you could use Por15 Thinner or xylenes (laquer thinner). I can attest that the xylenes will dissolve the Por15 (I used it for cleaning), but I did not use it for thinning. I would also like to point out that you can expect to throw out the brush that you use. As soon as I tried rinsing the brush after - I thought - I had rinsed out the Por15 with the laquer thinner, the brush stiffened up and became useless. In other words, you need to do the job in one session and just throw out the brush at the end (I bought cheapo brushes for this reason). If youplan on using a brush to apply it, you don't ned or want to thin it. I believe they recommend that you don't thin it more than 10% for spraying.
