What is used to thin this product?

I used a small amount of lacquer thinner...working without it being thinned a bit was like brushing honey on! Thinning it a little made it wonderful to work with, and the finish is awesome! Did a wood top for making a bathroom vanity out of an antique buffet. Wonderful product!

Brush application - Epifanes thinner for paint and varnish or a good quality mineral spirit or turpentine Brush application - Epifanes spray thinner for paint or varnish is what the can says. For this and other solvent based finished, I have had great luck when I pass 3-4 seconds worth of carbon dioxide to the can with lit on top but open enough for my air gun to be shoved down into the can but above the product. You may want to get an old air tank filled to say 50 psi and use a regulator to drop pressure to 5- 10 psi IF you can't see spending for a carbon Carbon dioxide tank and regulator. Heavier than air, it displaces oxygen and prevents skimming of cans that are only partially full.

I think double sided tape would work, I bought some but haven't gotten around to applying it.

I use anywhere from a pea to a marble sized amount to items to my walls. It is thick and and I pinch off a bit, stretch and roll it into a ball so it gets tacky and it works well. When you need to take it off the walls you just pinch off another bit and use it to pick up what's stuck to the wall.

I think you could "shim" the thickness using foam or rubber pads from Michael's or some other hobby store.

Yes, the product is 'in' the strip. There is nothing else to buy. Depending on the area you need to cover, you may need a pair of scissors to trim it to the size you need.

I used a thin layer of hand soap, it worked fine. I guess Vaseline also works.

I line the bottom with some aluminum foil then just add anything. I use it more than anything else, best investment.

Yes, that is definitely the most common method. Remember, this material is unsupported so it needs to be stretched tight in all directions for best results. For a different look or more portability you can also check out the version of this that has finished edges. Thanks!

I would have to answer the question as best I can....not thin at all, & not a heavy duty thickness. I feel it is just the right thickness for a tablecloth covering my cloth tablecloths...hope that might help.

Buy Berryman's B-12 at the auto supply store. Get the liquid, not the aerosol. Use it to thin the material in the can. It can be repeated as often as necessary. Don't add too much thinner and get the coating thinner than originally.

I used tape...but it all depends on what you are using in for. I cut it up and wrapped boxes to make a fireplace.

You can add a little bit of water and stir to thin it back out. However, if it has turned solid, you will probably just have to toss it.

No, covering it with another sheet would inhibit the effectiveness of the product. Needs to be touching your skin.

Use thin layers but you'll have to apply more coats. Making sure each one is completely dry before adding another

This is a self leveling product. It thins during the curing process and becomes runny so a border would be needed to contain it. I haven't used it at a thickness greater than 1/8th inch so don't know how it would respond thicker than that.

It's very thin. I would say 1", yet it thinned much more with only about a week of use.

As far as I know, it only thickens what's already there. You might want to try aveda.com -- they have products that deal with thinning hair. A whole new line.
