Hi all
Just noticed my bottle of Clearfix has gone a bit viscous, does anyone know a way of thinning it down ?
I have tried white spirit, Tamiya thinners and water (not all of them at once!) But have had no success.
If anybody has a solution please let me know. There is nearly half a bottle left and I dont want to let it go to waste.

I don't know what Clearfix is, but if you've tried those solvents with no effect, try isopropyl or denatured alcohol (methylated spirits in the UK). I think the Tamiya thinner is alcohol based, so this suggestion may not work.

Frank: Humbrol Clearfix is a Brit adhesive primarily intended for use on clear parts.
Mog : I've heard that acetone works for thinning Clearfix. Would Mrs. 'Mog have a stash of nail polish remover vulnerable to raiding?

Thanks guys, I have some meths somewhere in the garage. If that doesn't work I'll bribe Mrs Lady Mog.

Hmmm...That could have led somewhere altogether different... ;)

Walter White could not agree more on this.
