Okay so I am new to acrylic paint so I bought lacquer thinner in the store and just got my shipment from Hobblinc and notices it says acrylic thinner. I thought lacquer thinner was supposed to be used with acrylic paint?  So which one am I to use with Acrylic paint. I thought all Tamiya paints we're Acrylic paint except for spray can. Thanks for the help Karl

For airbrushing you can use either one for your Tamiya acrylics. The lacquer thinner was developed later primarily to make their acrylics spray more like lacquers. It will also help gloss acrylics dry somewhat faster. If you ever decant Tamiya spray cans for use in the airbrush, use the lacquer thinner to thin it a bit more.
