Hataka lacquers + Mr. Leveling Thinner?

[Lusitanian]

Does MLT work okay with the Hataka lacquers?

Tks!

Hi. Sorry I cannot really help you on the Hataka lacquers, but I’d try in a separate container before filling the airbrush cup.

What I can tell you is that I I used some Hataka acrylics to airbrush the highlights of my Potez 25 - in the case I goofed the paint job, I could wipe it off on the MRP / Tamiya X-22 lacquer base - and thinned them with Tamiya X20 acrylic thinner. I could finish the paint job, but I found it left a gooey mess in my airbrush, which it almost clogged completely and which I spent an hour cleaning this morning. But then acrylics can react funnily with chemicals when water works just fine …
 

I’d also try Tamiya Lacquer Thinner in case Mr Levelling Thinner dose not work.
