I just ordered a number of mig pigments, washes, and enamel effects; but I didn't get the mig odorless enamel thinner in my order. I have several thinners in my stockpile, including: tamiya thinner, testors thinner, Mona Lisa white spirits, and a couple generic mineral spirits. Will any of those serve as an adequate substitute in the meantime?

They should all work fine with the MiG products you have. If you have the Tamiya Enamel Thinner, that should work fine too.

Paint Thinner from any paint store or hardware store will work fine, just make sure it fresh and clean, not used.

Ok good. Thank you. I was hoping I wouldn't have to wait on another order.
