I combine the Xtra-color with Lacquer thinner slightly less than 1:1. Milky consistency.Spraying at roughly 12-15 lbs. pressure, this paint lies smooth and even, building up to a rich dark color. Drying time: i find depends on air temp, and drying location. Usually for me handling after an overnight curing is best. For decaling, the gloss surface is perfect, as decals get sucked into all the panel lines , and the carrier is invisible
