Well, it is not common to have your car attacked by vandals here, in fact, it is very rare, but when it happens during some sort of manifestation, things go really bad.
Well Jennifer, I think Richard will answer your question soon, but meanwhile I'd like to tell you that mediums are something very personal. It depends on your way of working. Some mediums accelerate the drying of paints, others slow down. You should watch Daniel Greene's video "Erin", in this video he addresses this subject in detail.
If you don't have access to the video, we can discuss it here on in another thread.
You mentioned Walnut oil, that's wondeful but adds a lot to the drying time. In my Country people don't have the culture of patience to sit for long sessions, so I use my mix of 1 part of stand oil e 4 parts of odorless mineral spirits, this medium accelerates the drying time. I also use Titanium white of flake white, which get dry a lot faster than zinc white.
You will have to find your own recipe to your medium, but I also avoid the ones with bad reputation.
