leatherapprentice Report post Posted February 26, 2015 I'm looking on some tips for thinning Barge cement. My local Tandy's only sells a generic thinner which they say will work but other folks have warned me against. Even if it does work I would have to buy a litre which is a little pricey and is a lot of thinner that I'll have around for a long time. Does anyone have experience with thinning with other materials that might be available to me locally in smaller quantities? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tramps Leatherworking Report post Posted February 27, 2015 I just bought a quart of Barge's thinner for about $13.00 --- I use it for thinning the Barge's cement, cleaning brushes, separating old glued items, etc... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tramps Leatherworking Report post Posted February 27, 2015 Slightly off topic, but do you have good results with Barge's? I have used it for years, and have no issues with the results... I use the original formula in the red and yellow can. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
