Humbrol Acrylic paint thinner

May 8, 2013 By

1 HN TM Humbrol Acrylic Thinner
Price: £4.99 (March 2013)
Review by Geoff Coughlin

HumbrolOur thanks to Humbrol for providing our review samples. Get this useful paint thinner here now at Humbrol

                       

What we think…

We’ve received a number of tinlets of Humbrol acrylic paint in multiple colours and tones and we’ll be using this thinner with some of them soon.

What you get here is a thinner designed for use with Humbrol acrylic paint; interesting too as the thinner clearly has some kind of solvent in it based in the odour yet the Humbrol range of paints is water-based acrylic. No matter, I have tested this new thinner with Humbrol No. 94 and sprayed it at around 15psi and it went on very well with good coverage.

The thinner is used to clean the airbrush or, as in my test I used solvent-based airbrush cleaner that comes in a spray can and it cleaned easily from the airbrush.

I’m in the process of creating a short HD video using the Humbrol acrylic paints and this thinner so watch out for that in Here Now – Tools.
