Description says this can be sprayed - does it need to be thinned first, and what would you thin it with? Thanks all.

Hi-I just painted this on, UNdiluted, with a big brush. It worked fine (my painting was 4' X 3.5'). If possible, I wouldn't thin the gloss if you sprayed it. Then again if you applied several coats of thinned gloss it might work out to be the same as unthinned.

According to page 4 of the operator's manual, the answer would be that clear sealers, oil stains, and polyurethane may be sprayed without any thinning. Of course, as they say, 'your mileage may vary' depending on specifically which formula you're using as some may be thicker than others and you'll always want to follow the coating manufacturer's instructions to the letter as well as having all of your cleanup supplies ready to go so you can clean the gun immediately upon completing your spraying.

Two others answered this, but I'll add to it. Do not dilute. I poured some in a spray bottle (try $ stores or Walmart for one).Sprayed it on cloth and then washed/wipes windows, buffing with the cloth when as I cleaned it. (Initially, I sprayed it on plexi directly & used clean cloth at that point. Seemed to work fine, but then read to spray on cloth instead. I think one uses less by spraying on cloth first, but both ways worked. In other words, I use the stuff like Windex in a spray bottle. (I used regular clean cloth--a kitchen dish towel--and not microfiber. Worked fine).

Do not thin it as it is just right for clinging on metal. Buy the inexpensive sprayer they offer as it does a good job. Also the spray cans with the thin plastic probe nozzle is great for difficult areas or where you want to control the amount and not overspray onto something else.

I didn't use it yet, but I feel that it must be thinned even little, although they mentioned in the user manual without thing but you have to test before.Good Luck

my question why? get a HVLP sprayer. Although this post is very old i will still give my 2 cents. if you get sprayable dip then you fine. if you get the unthinned dip you need a 50/50 cut with whatever thinner you want to use. Google what you should use for your results. HVLP sprayers will give you a much better/smoother result

If it's got the words 'Spray' on the can, then yep. No thinning necessary, but maybe a good stir.

I thinned 5 gallons with 1 quart of water because it was below 70 outside and I was using paint/primer mix (thicker). Have painted w/o thinning in summer.

It's super thick and would likely clog a spray bottle. I would say it's similar to Elmer's white craft glue. I applied it with one of those little foam black brushes. It goes on opaque but dries clear. Also, it takes time to dry (I gave it a full 24 hours) so you have time to shape and mold it before it stiffens.

I really don't know if you could spray paint it. The material is very shiny, like tin foil. Spray paint may just run off. I think experimenting with regular tin foil would give you an answer.

Yes it will spray fine. You may have to thin it slightly. However, spraying is not a recommended application method. You get better penetration and coverage with brush and roller.

It can be applied by hand or machine. It's easier to spread out thinner by machine.

Just use some distilled water and a spray bottle. Thats what I did and it worked like a champ. Then just wet it liberally and make sure you use a sharp blade.

It's awfully thick so I don't think it can be sprayed. It took 2 coats to cover my cabinets but they look great. I cleaned them first with window cleaner and the paint rolled right on. It looks great in my kitchen. I did buy a better thick roller that worked well too

A 50/50 mixture will be thin enough to spray that way, but for best results the manufacturer states it should soak in, so I would say make sure there is really good coverage, allow it to soak in and then wipe away any liquid that remains. However, I am not sure about any reaction to plastic.
