I only use laquer but of course the smell is horrible. So as I will eventually have a proper room inside the bungalow, i need to control the smell and a lot!
So I have switched to Mr Hobby Aquarius, not as smelly as Mr color. Using Mr Color's levelling thinner, but still smelly. Bought a bottle of the Aquarius thinner and the smell difference between both thinners is a lot. So the thinner is the main cause of the pong.
Final change ( for me ) was to now mix the paint inside the booth and also clean up, with the booth running. I also bought a external carbon / charcoal filter. Result, in my opinion a lot less smelly.
My favourite is Tamiya LP, but Aquarius thinner reacts badly with it. Found out by drops of paint on card and mixed in different thinner, saved blocking the airbrush!
Hope this helps some of us who like laquers.
