Slim Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 (edited) First time I painted VS properly I was advised by a boat painter who used the marina polytunnel to use it in Masons paint. His tip was to add it until when the paint drained off the mixing tool the residue flowed off as a continuous needle thin stream. I've followed this advice ever since. Excellent finish with absolutely no brush marks Edited May 25, 2022 by Slim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAP Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 I use Owatrol. If you don’t want brush marks then this is the product to use (see pic below). About 10% is usually sufficient. It is also an excellent rust inhibitor when used neat on cleaned up / wire brushed rust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
