I tried a bunch of stuff a few months ago....no luck. I ended up ordering thinner from 3R.

Fletch-lac paints are a vinyl laquer base product. While you might be able to thin with regular laquer thinner any clean up would be iffy. Those other products like acetone will contaminate the fletch-lac. For the prices we pay for the fletch-lac paint I would not take chances with other than fletch-lac thinner.

I believe that fletch lac is a chem chromic base and can be thinned with M.E.K. Maybe some painters or arrow makers can help. I do not want to make a special order to 3rivers.

I have used xylene with great results. In a pinch another thing that works is a product named "Goof Off" for removing latex paint splatter from wood work, etc. It is mostly xylene and can be had in smaller quantities than the gallon that is sold at Homers. I have a gallon and I think it will be a lifetime supply.
