Savvi Posted September 27, 2009 Report Posted September 27, 2009 If that's the case i'd go to Focus or B&Q and mix it with some cheap thinners

Just thought with the weather in this country, thinners makes it last a little longer, if it rained when he came to pick it up you might not get paid

Savvi Posted September 27, 2009 Report Posted September 27, 2009 Water it is then If you use their own brands it's watered down anyway so that should save a bit of time as well
bomber1 Posted September 27, 2009 Report Posted September 27, 2009 normal thinners gives dulux a nice shine normal body filla works just fine theres a few old cars / yanks running round with dulux top coat
Twinkle Posted September 27, 2009 Author Report Posted September 27, 2009 normal thinners gives dulux a nice shine normal body filla works just fine theres a few old cars / yanks running round with dulux top coat was thinking of just using homebase own brand all purpose filler as its only a couple of quid a box compared to a tenner or so for the proper car stuff
