Depending upon the weather conditions, how warm it is etc, you will need somewhere between 20/25% thinners. Best to try on a spare body panel first to get the hang of it. Have you read the " paint your wagon with a roller" thread? Yes I know it seems long but well worth spending an evening reading through it. Have you viewed the DVD, again well worth looking at?
I'm currently three quarters of the way through doing my van, this early spring weather is certainly welcome, though a bit too hot at times! Will be updating my restoration thread soon I hope!
