About this product
Angelus 2-Thin is a paint thinner for Angelus acrylic paint, made for airbrushing and for getting smooth, even coats on mesh and leather. It thins the paint without losing the flexibility it needs on shoes and leather goods.
Choose 1 oz., 4 oz., pint, or quart. We've made Angelus products in Los Angeles since 1907.
How to use it
- For airbrushing, mix 1 part 2-Thin to 4 parts paint.
- Strain the mix through a reusable paint strainer to catch clumps before they clog your airbrush.
- Spray through an airbrush with at least a 0.35mm nozzle.
New to airbrushing? Start with the 1:4 mix, test spray on scrap first, and adjust from there. Our YouTube channel has step-by-step airbrush tutorials.
Works on
- Leather
- Mesh, where thinner paint goes on without clumping
- Fine detail work by brush or airbrush
