I just bought this and I'd like to dilute it so I have more but it's not as bright. Should I mix it with a white acrylic paint or a water based paint?

you cannot mix it with any paint. you can only mix it with a clear medium. If you look on the description, it states this color is not the brightest. you need to charge it with a very bright light source or a true black light in oorder to get the best glow from it.

I don't dilute it. I don't think it's made to be diluted with water. It's great stuff I really like it.

That would ultimately depend on the type of paint on your wall and how much grease you are trying to clean, but the Simple Green Crystal is a degreaser. I always dilute before using and then try using on a small area first.

I did the same thing. Unfortunately, it will be white until you put a color into the mix. I returned the tintable one and just got the black bed liner instead.Kasen

According to the instructions you paint the copper plating below the water line making it a rough 3 1/4 inches. It also give a you the option of greens to give it a tarnished look. On mine I will probably use copper foil with micro metal finish . That will probably be the most realistic look. If you plan to go for the tarnished look I recommend pastels. If you are a beginner I would go with primering first then copper paint. I hope this information was helpful to you and informative. The model is nothing to sneeze at in any direction you take with it. Happy modeling!

Yes the paint has to be mixed. That wasn't a problem for me. I just mixed the second color a little less than the first color and it turned out good.

You can paint it, not sure if you mix it in it will do what you are wanting, generally all silver and gold are painted on. Make sure to use vodka as the wet, so it will dry fast. don't mix with water

Angie you would have to either dilute this with a lot of water or purchase the air brush color set. just make sure the sprayer is really clean between each color usage. This is what i used to do till i found the sir brush color online here at Amazon. Thanks

I used acrylic paint and clear coat and it worked well, but make sure you wash it with degreaser and use a primer for best results

Use the smaller nozzle and lower the pressure and it lays a smooth coat. I haven't been able to add two colors together yet but I'm working on it. hopes this helps

you can mix acrylic but it has to be oil based and not water based if it is water based it will become a clump so I do not recommend you do so As for how long it stays glowing that depends on the light source that you would have on it along with a UV light I do suggest that you get a black light/ uv light if you do not have oneI hope this is helpful to you good luck^-^

I use two tablespoons of calcium carbonate, mixed with 1 tablespoon warm water, and 1 cup latex paint (flat)

just use it as it is....don't mess around with it by diluting it with water or any other liquid! Use it sparingly....don't DROWN the floor with it and create a little "river". Just use it LIGHTLY.

I just used water to mix it to the consistency that I needed. Using Latex paint depends on what you're using the paint for.

I mix it according to the directions and put it in a pump up sprayer. If you are in the sun you need to work fast or it will dry before you get it rinsed. I was using it on semi trailers and used it too quickly so will probably try to thin it a little farther next time so a bottle will go farther

I use it neat, I tried diluting it and it seems like it still works but the visual affects of it working are more visible when it's not diluted
