Liven up 1shot

[Wayne Smith]

As I'm sure most know 1shot is not what it used to be as far a coverage and color in some of it's paints.I've found that when I'm using 1shot that if I put a drop of Xotic tint paste in the mineral spirits I'm palleting with(for examlpe:for 1shot 160 Violet I use a drop of 250 blue violet tint paste) and what a difference.I haven't had any problems with brittleness or cleaning my brushes and I tried sanding some of it off a panel and I can tell you first hand it does nothing to the durability of 1shot...

Very good tip for all the pinstripers.

I believe none of the paints cover as good as they used to because of the removal of the lead in the paint.

Yeah, your right. Some of the one shot doesn't cover like it did before the lead was removed. I think magenta is the worst. Thanks for the great tip.
