Touch up paint on Comp-Arf 3.3M Yak 55SP

[backroadrider69]

Can anybody tell me in what is the correct ratio to mix Comp-Arf touch up paint and hardner?

I have had two different answers from 2 Comp-Arf reps and I don't know who is right. I emailed Comp-Arf tech support but didn't get an answer.

Also, what thinner do I use to thin the paint for an airbrush?

Thanks,
Butch

Hey Butch,
Pack that thing up and run it down to to Tony Russo at Dalton.
If anybody can point you in the right direction, its him.
He is only around 30 minuets from your house.

I am mixing to a ratio between 4 parts paint to 1 part hardener and 6 parts paint to 1 part hardener, they say that the paint is a urithane, I have not found a good thinner everything i try just coagulates the paint, found some thinner that works fair for airbrush cleaning from true value, I've tried gas,mineral spirits, acetone.
the thinner I use to clean up is made by Sunnyside Xylol(xylene) says its a powerful solvent for porch and deck enamels,it also makes the paint clump up but fast enough will clean your gun.
on the ratios it all depends on how fast you want the paint to dry,btw keep the lids clean on the hardener or it will set up,lost a full can due to this...good luck
6 to 1 is what I was told by Ray Lebonte

who is your rep?
I have used the red,yellow,purple,and white.
the white has been the thickest so far and I have not needed thinner for the other paints,although it does kinda give you a very pronounced orange peel.I sanded mine with 600 grit and thin polished it with automotive polishing compound, unless you know where the spots are you cannot tell

how is the touch up going? what kind of damage did you have?
