Quick Kiwi Question

**Jersey Skillz - Joha** · 11-13-2005 03:48 PM

For right now i do not have any thinner for my kiwi mop.. . i just got back from doing a little mop mission on some complex building doors.. and it was hard as hell to get some drips out of that shit..

But i was wonder if any of yall ever tried using a substitue besides a paint thinner in there.. something household i can get my hands on.

My mom had told me to use some nail polish remover... but i figure i'll ask yall first to see any of yall tried that before.

My Kiwi Specs:
Kiwi Bottle - Circle Nib
Silver Rusto Bucket Paint
Brake Fluid Mix - Dot3

take out the penis inside,then you'll get more drips.
And yes they are called kiwi mops/shoe polish mops.

LoL.. My mom she taught me how to Draw graff when i was like 5...
Yea i was telling her about how i can get the paint loose and drippy .. she said i should try nail polish remover..

i dont kno about taken that val out cuz i heard that she gets messy as hell.. u can't leave it up side down or nothing...

Well i got 2 so imma try one with the nib out and one with nail polish remover.. see how it comes out.

yeah there called kiwi's cuase thats the brand that they are,

if you didnt take out the lil red peice from inside the nib, do so now, also for your paint,
depending on what you used you can use water to thin it, but you said silve rusto, so no dont use water, yes you can use nail poligh remover, i would suggest using AlKaHall
or just use more brake fluid,

water???
are you using water color paints in your mop too?i heard tempra paints can make some seriously hardcore stains *rofl*

some people just dont get it.

AND STOP CALLING IT A PENIS.it's a VALVE
i dont know what kind of penises you guys have but mine sure as fuck doesnt look like anything ive seen in a kiwi mop.

you could use acetone with that combination it should work ok.
i would just miz a little on the side first to make sure you get the right consistancy and achieve the desired effect before you find out it's not what you wanted and you've wasted a whole batch of paint and time.

**ow1** · 11-13-2005 04:14 PM

lol the penis thing Y does every one call it the penis any how

**BRAINE** · 11-13-2005 04:14 PM

smick or whatever guy is right. i use rubbing alcohol to make it drip, it also helps it dry faster and makes it look crazier, its hard to explain but when you mix silver rusto, and rubbing alcohol and write on smooth surfaces it comes out real weird.

**AMAZ tbscrew** · 11-13-2005 04:18 PM
