Has anyone here used Motospray Aclac 20 Acrylic Thinner to fix their scratches on their paintwork?

It worked magic for me, I smashed into a sign and got roughly 15 light scratches on the paintwork - but this thinner fix it... bloody magic

My only concern is, do these thinners actually "thin" your paint layer?

Would putting too much eventually do some damage?

Any advice would be appreciated, cheers

What do you mean watch out if its not acrylic?

Do you mean that too much could "thin" down your paintwork?

no , watch out if it has acrylic touch ups as the thinners will wipe it straight off.
also dont leave the thinners soaked rag sitting on the paint as it can soften the paint and damage it.
u will need to give the area u clean a light polish and wax to protect it again too.
