Odorless thinner in the starter kit?
Permalink   


I just recieved the Mini reborn starter kit. In watching the tutorial, I see that there is no "odorless thinner" included in the kit. That seems an essential component...perhaps the kit should include that??

Here is what they say on the site for the thinner and I think it's because:
1. It cannot be shipped overseas
2. Most craft/art stores carry it.
3. They are trying to keep the cost down (and shipping too) and it would raise the cost somewhere in the deal.

Sorry, but I do know what you mean about it being a complete kit then.

Hi instead of using thinner go to the hardware and buy a bottle of mineral turpentine substitute..(not the normal turps it has to be the substitute).I have been reborning for almost 2 years and that is all i have ever used..And its much cheaper as well.
You can also get it from the grocery store but not all of them stock them..

Or you could always use the Genesis thinning medium that you can order with the paints from Secrist or any Secrist dealer.
