I thin (@#$%^&) by adding 3 drops acetone from an eyedropper to a 1cc total mix. Mix a and b 3 min. add acetone, mix 1 more minute. I found this to be annoying and so got TM Lite for when I want a thin finish. (@#$%^&) would be perfect if it was 1/3 thinner. I like both (@#$%^&) and TM Lite, I think you can thin (@#$%^&) with a little heat from a butane torch or alcohol burner and wick it off the bottom if careful. I should have typed D-2. Also Casey might advise you about thinning if you contact him.
