Hi

A frind showed me this stuff to use with colored pencils and I can't find it for the life of me. Went to the CKC scrapbook show this past weekend in Valley Forge and no body had it. Went to AC Moore yesterday and I looked thru the whole scrap booking section and the whole painting and artist section. Havn't tried Michaels because I'm not that close to one. I would really rather not order it from a website because they only had 16 ounce sizes and my fiend told me it only lasts a year. THANKS

In the paint dept at ACMoore or Mike's. I use the Mona Lisa' Odorless paint thinner, it can also be oderless mineral spirits.

I used pointed make up tips to blend with, they work really well.

Thanks. So gamsol is paint thinner??? I don't remember seeing the mona lisa brand down here in PA but will look again. I bought the paper stubs (?) I think their called. That's what the women I work with has.

actually it's just mineral spirits but yes the mineral spirits and the paint thinner can be interchanged in this case.
The paper stubs should be fine, Mona Lisa just happens to be the brand I found.
The biggest thing is to not use commercial paint thinner because of the smell.
