Hi all,

I started using the Reaper Bone Shadow Master Series Paint. I bought the paint a long time ago (at least a year or more) and just got around to using it to paint up a skeleton for a wash.

Shook the paint up really well, at least a minute or so. The paint would not come out in drops, it came out in a line almost like it was gummy. Any ideas how to thin this down, or am I stuck with a bad bottle and need to get a new one? I couldn't get drops out of the bottle (just came out in a long dangling line of paint).

Thanks,
Arkayn

Usually when I run into that effect it's just near the top of the bottle; worst case I've had to take the cap off and clean it out. If the whole bottle is that consistency, then you might be out of luck.

The bottle has just been sitting too long without being shaken.

Get a pin and clear the nozzle. Shake the hell out of the bottle, until the shaker rattles. If it still comes out thick or you cannot hear the rattle after a solid minute of shaking, open the top and put in a few drops of distilled water. Repeat. You may need more than a few drops.

I find the metallics need thinning, too.

If the bottle has gone bad, you might try contacting customer service at questions@reapermini.com

I don't know how long they warrantee their paints for, whether it's like a year or lifetime or what, but they have always been very helpful to me.

Thanks for the input. Inarah, water seems to be getting it there. Just have to keep working with it I guess. Glad I didn't have to get rid of it.
