as much as deco color is so hyped..... decocolor isnt the greatest if you lay that shit around idle for a week it leaks like mad

actually its the exact opposite ); i used rusto oil based enamel and in the 2nd picture the guy used acrylics.

yeah. taking out the regulator makes the mop leak like crazy. one guy on SR says put MORE thinner in there. the only 2 things i see coming out of that are 1. the paint will flow easier through and hopefully become solid (good) OR 2. the paint will water down even more and make the effect worse but i guess those are the only 2 options that could happen anywayz.........

ive been doing that for the past couple of days before i posted this. havent seen anything about it in them

So i was trying a new recipe to make some paint for my mop today but the streaks dont come out as solid. I was just wondering on some suggestions on how to fix the problem. I have a couple ideas but i'm not sure. 1. too much thinner? 2. need to cut out the regulator? any help/advice for mop paint making would be really appreciated. also, if anybody is willing to share what they add to their mop recipes to make them stain hard (please dont say dot3 break fluid....), that'd be great. Here is what it currently looks like. Here is how i want it to look (borrowed pic)
