Jennifer,

Thanks again for a thumbnail compliment.

So, do you use Gamblin's Galkyd Lite also? Or do you just thin with GAMSOL - Odorless Mineral Spirits?

This is all making me nuts. Maybe I will try this Gamblin's stuff with my oil student grade paints I still have (even though they are like 7 years old) and see what I think. Then if I like that I will invest in some better paints. Thanks for the input.
