I've never added thinners to synthetic paint. At 50/50 it must have been like water. No wonder it's taking so long to dry.

Cellulose thinners with synthetic?

Hmm not looking good then from the replies, thanks anyway guys. Was all a bit trial and error and other than the drying issue I was pleased with the result and the way it sprayed (in the view of a complete amateur btw).

Will dare to check the garage in a while to see how things have progressed overnight.

Like I say, lovely finish tho

Will sort some snaps once I paint the next panel. Glad to say that it did set in the end and really pleased with the finish. Nice shine anyway.
