Dumb question time, boys and girls!
So, yeah — wondering if you could thin acrylic craft paint using Future, thereby possibly gaining some measure of Future's self-leveling qualities to help eliminate brush strokes. Obviously, I'm not talking about thinning for airbrushing.
Not even really concerned about whether this is necessary, per se — I know I could use Windex or many other choices for thinning. Just wondering whether anyone has ever tried this …

Yeah, no problem with it. The only thing is that craft paint coverage is not that great as it is, and you're going to be taking that away even more. That's why I personally use it more for blending, especially on small figures, for which it works great. You can get kind of in between straight paint and like a Tamiya transparent, which is useful for some things, not so much for others.
Just play around with it and see how you like it.

Okay, that's pretty much what I expected. Thanks!
