hello lwleather, i use mineral sprits to thin my antique, it last longer and it gets down in the tiny places better. if you are having dark and light spots i would check and make sure you project is clen and free of any oils after tooling. after i finish tooling i clean with oxolic acid let dry, oil, then apply light coat of neat-lac,then antique, then finish off with tan-coat. hope this helps john
