    Vinyl Jig finish question

    What type thinner do you use ? I have had the bottle for a couple years, seems thicker than I remember when it was new. Using brush on application.

    Unless you have a specific need or purpose for using vinyl, you can probably buy a jar of powder for what the thinner will cost and you can do a bunch of jigs from one bottle. Easier, less mess, and instant drying time. Just saying .....

    Component systems always had their own thinner. I'm not sure what it is to buy in the store.

    I would call them and ask... https://www.csipaint.com/contact-cs-coatings/index.php

    The bottle says it contains xylene, I would think than would thin it. But it may be cheaper to buy a new jar of paint , painting some spinnerbaits.
