Inquiring if anyone used this brand of brushable product, and if you are aware of what medium I would use to dilute it. It comes very thick and opaque, and a test swatch dries the same way: opaque and thick - almost to the point of being 3-D - unusable out of the jar. I tried water, enamel thinner, and Tamiya Acrylic paint thinner to dilute it, and what happens is that if forms white gobules on the end of my paint brush - as if the thinners and product are incompatible. Seeking to verify if I need to also purchase a Mr. Color thinner. Your input is appreciated.
Mr. Color Leveling Thinner would be best, but any lacquer thinner will work. Not really made for brushing.

Yeah you can’t brush that stuff on. Airbrush only. Thin it with Mr. Color leveling thinner only, and beware, it is a hot lacquer so it might crack and affect any acrylic underneath.
Tucohoward and Nathan, thank you for the input. This explains why the product is as it is, which is thick and opaque and meant to be diluted and sprayed. I chose not to acquire an airbrush, so maybe with the leveling thinner, I can still apply it onto small parts I need matte or flat, with a brush. Again, this explains everything, and is helpful towards a direction I can go with this product. Thank you.
