    Hi Ian, I don’t know whether you have cold or hot weather reducer but this time of year obviously I would use cold.

    I only use a small amount which I pour into the paint from the screw cap.

    Again, I only use this when I’m lettering, if you are coating up a signboard I wouldn’t use any and apply the paint with a foam roller.

    Hope this helps
