Hi, I'm spraying Epifanes clear varnish over 3 coats of West System epoxy and I seem to be getting some "orange peel". The Epifanes directions for thining are for brush on application only and not for spray on. I've currently thinned the varnish %20 to accomodate the Fuji Spray turbine I'm using. Are there any recommendations for thinning spraying? Will over thinning the varnish cause it to flash to quickly and not give a chance to level out?

Thanks
Tony

Hi,

Sorry for delay in replying.

If you are spraying you should be using the Epifane Spray Thinner.

That should help solve the issues.

Kind Regards,
