 normal?? Normal is a cycle on a washing machine
 

ok....when you change reducer/solvent for hotter weather...what does it do? slow down the evap rate, or change the cure time ?



and what is the difference between reducers, solvents & thinner?



i know shine, put my cheapo gun down, but i gotta get this thing painted & a further understanding would help....i think

fast reducers are for production work or cold weather. i use the slowest i can. lays out better cures better .solvents are in everything. reducer is a solvent. thinner is a solvent. your using that ms stuff so i cant help. i paint cars not houses if your priming dont over reduce or you'll loose build.

as the #'s go up the slower it gets. if it drys fast you get solvent pop.
