For some years, I have read posts on this and other web sites concerning 2150 paint and the proper reducer and hardener to use. Just recently I talked to a rep from Valspar (the maker) and am passing on the following: 2150 is and has been for many years an alkyd enamel, not an acrylic enamel. Industry also refers to alkyd as synthetic enamel. The can says it is "acrylic modified", which is true, but it is still an alkyd enamel. It should be treated as such, and this means using synthetic enamel hardener and reducer. Various posts have testimony by people who have stated that they use acrylic enamel reducer and hardener. This is not recommended. The easy way to keep from having a problem is to use IH/Case reducer and the recently available hardener (part # REN-3001). In the past, I have used a NAPA (Martin Senour) reducer product called Synthol 8005 and hardener MSE 375. Both are compatable. Also, Dupont Nason makes a synthetic hardener 483-08. I am sure there are others.
