Good Evening All

I have a part used pot of Phoenix Precision Paint smokebox back but no thinners left. I checked the phoenix web page and could not see smokebox black listed. I emailed them three weeks ago asking what thinners to use but have not received a reply. Does anybody know what to use?

The smell should give a good idea. Try enamel thinner or all purpose thinner with a test sample. So long as nothing precipitates out it should be OK.

Put the same post on Model Engineering Clearing House. Bob who used to own and run Pheonix is always around the site and he will give you chapter and verse.
