                        I'm just getting into the whole oil wash thing, but I've been thinning with Mona Lisa Odorless Thinner. I've tested it over bare enamel (White Ensign Coloucoats) both on a scrap plane and on some landing gear doors. Zero issues.

                        Try using Future, being an acrylic it should be fairly immune to the oil after it has cured. I use odorless thinners to thin oils when I use them. I think it's called Turpinoid or something like that.

                        I'm building an aircraft model that I airbrushed with Model Master light ghost gray enamel. What should I seal it with before doing an oil wash? Also what's the safest product to use to thin the oils?
