Question about gloss paints and thinners

Recommended Posts

Hey all

 

I feel I should know this...

 

Back when I was doing scale modelling, up to the start of 2020, I was a member of a certain pay forum run by a well known guy with a youtube channel (not Genesis models, the other one), and I recall on some of his more recent videos at that time, he was advertising Gunze Rapid Thinners.

 

The selling point was that Gunze's Self Levelling Thinners apparently has a habit of turning gloss paint less glossy.  Whilst their Rapid Thinners doesn't have that effect.

 

So, I'm wondering if anyone here has an experience of thinners, of any sort, turning gloss paint less glossy?  And what thinners people use with gloss paints, particularly Tamiya or Gunze acrylic gloss paints?

 

 

Thanks in advance, any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.
