Hi Jeff , I use Microscale Micro mask ( blue stuff ) and if I have to thin it for applying I thin it with water or isoproply alcohol .

I actually tried this about a week ago - distilled water will thin it just fine.

Cool will try it starting to dry in the bottle, this stuff has a shelf life and when it comes it comes, bottle will dry dark green and well that is all folks.
Thanks

Ohh...

Sorry, I thought you were asking about thinning it for application. Distilled water works fine for that, but once it's fully dry it's not water soluble.

If it's dry in the bottle, I don't think you'll be able to recover it.
