Can I thin this paint with anything other than water?

Troubleshooting

Paint appears too thick for airbrushing.

Dilute the paint further with water or Aqua Color Mix, ensuring the dilution does not exceed 25%.

Paint is drying too quickly in the airbrush.

Use Aqua Color Mix as a retarder to slow down the drying process.
