<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Humidity
is not a problem, dew point is. Since it is warm now in most places this should
not be a problem. The amount of reducer called out by the paint
manufacturer has two purposes, </span></font><br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>1.
Reduce the viscosity so a standard paint gun can atomize</span></font> <br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>2.
Only reduce the viscosity barely enough as to meet EPA volatile organic
emmision requirements </span></font><br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>The
PPG "reducer" amounts allow the car painting guy to seriously
"lay it on" with out fear of runs or overspray. Unfortunately laying
it on an airplane increases weight. A thicker clear coat will not really
protect your plane better than a thinner coat, so it is just weight. Adding
more reducer (its really a blend of different solvents) will allow for
thinner coats, less overspray, but can increase runs. </span></font><br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>The
reducer like I mentioned is a blend of solvents, and all of this 100%
evaporates and has nothing to do with the urethane chemical reaction that cures
the clearcoat. You can add as much reducer as you want without
reprisal...except from the EPA, which I doubt will go after an individual
pattern guy...but I could be wrong. So once you are comfortable with
increasing your local pollution level...add that 200% reducer!!!</span></font> <br>
