FAQs
Can I use this thinner with non-Max Meyer systems?
No. This thinner is specifically designed for the 0396 system. Using it with incompatible systems may cause chemical reactions, poor adhesion, or finish defects.
How should I store the 2.5L container?
Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated cabinet away from direct sunlight and heat sources, ensuring the lid is always tightly closed after use.
Is this product suitable for spray gun cleaning?
While it is a solvent, it is formulated for thinning paint. Use appropriate dedicated gun wash solvents for cleaning equipment to maintain the longevity of your spray tools.
Does the humidity affect the performance of the thinner?
Yes. High humidity can interfere with solvent evaporation and finish quality. Always aim to work within the manufacturer's recommended environmental conditions.
Why is the 2.5L size preferred by professionals?
The 2.5L size provides an ideal balance between bulk supply for high-volume jobs and ease of handling compared to smaller tins or larger industrial drums.
Troubleshooting
Coating is running or sagging
The mixture may be over-thinned. Check your mixing ratio and verify that you are using the correct amount of thinner relative to the paint base.
Poor leveling or 'orange peel' appearance
The mixture may be under-thinned or the ambient temperature is too high. Ensure the correct dilution ratio and control the booth temperature.
Coating drying too quickly
This may be due to high workshop temperatures. Move the project to a climate-controlled area or consult technical sheets for temperature-specific additive advice.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before use, ensure the ambient temperature of the workshop is within the recommended range, as this affects solvent evaporation. Always use clean, dedicated mixing cups to maintain the exact ratio required for the 0396 system. Store the 2.5L container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, keeping the cap tightly sealed to prevent evaporation or contamination. When handling, always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including organic vapor respirators and chemical-resistant gloves, to avoid inhalation or skin contact.
