Yes I know that I was trying to point out that Humbrol Mattcote, Staincote etc are not cellulose based

Sorry, was not trying to teach granny to suck eggs!
Years ago I worked in an auto spray shop.One day I had to respray a GPO van that had been in an accident - the Post Office supplied the paint, thinners and transfers for the GPO logo.
I thinned the paint and sprayed the van and then tried to clean the spray gun, but the thinners wouldn't clean the paint off. I rang the GPO garage and complained about the rubbish thinners they had sent. The guy at the other end said "we didn't send any thinners - that's the adhesive for the transfers!"
Everybody agreed it was a lovely finish.....
