Sorry to ask the same question again but recently I read a thread here that indicated some issues with the Vallejo Satin Varnish and I cant seem to find it. I’ve been having some problems spraying the varnish and I cant seem to get it to flow very well, can it be thinned with anything and if so what? Please advise. ICIT

I thin it with a little tap water,works okay for me.

I utilize this varnish to seal each subsequent layer of paint and weathering. I find thinning it with Vallejo airbrush thinner (about a 60-40 varnish to thinner ratio) works great and it flows very smooth for me.

Thanks guys, the Vallejo brand is an experiment for me as I’m trying to get away from Tamiya. I find it gives me more options but one of the big things I’ve discovered is you have to be real careful with the masking and the primers aren’t that good. I will experiment with both ideas.
