[QUOTE="MichaelChad, post: 888909, member: 14725"] Xylene might be a little harsh, naphtha is a pretty gentle solvent, a lot like mineral spirits. I've used both in a pinch as a prep for dip, over factory paints without any issue. All of the above evaporate much faster than the DYC product, which I think is why it works so well. Little related tip for dipping your large surfaces. If you get a bad layer, and are left with more texture than you want: dilute the dip 1:1 with mineral spirits, and set your nozzle for a finer slower feed. If you're using an HVLP, switch to a 1.4 and set it up like a clear. Then coat the whole affected area, somewhere between dump and dust. You want the entire surface wet at the same time. It'll get into the texture, and re-level it. Works great on overspray, and as a refresher for old applications too. [/QUOTE]
