If you are wanting to make the acrylic paint less thick, then my answer will help you. Water-based acrylics were developed in the 1950s. Since acrylic is water soluble, you can use water to make it thinner. Acrylics are made of pigment suspended in a synthetic polymer. They are odorless and anti-allergic. Some artists mix oils and acrylics together on canvas. If you mix oils with acrylic paints then it wouldn't be wise to use water to dilute the paint.

How do you add a glaze to painted cabinets?
Assuming you have prepped the cabinets for a new coat of paint (i.e., you primed it correctly) you can add the glaze directly to the new paint color, at whatever ratio you want, for color and effect. (This saves a step). If you're looking for totallly consistent coverage, then add the glaze after you've just painted, while the paint is still a little wet. In addition to this, I also used a copper metallic paint on one wall, with a glaze added to lighten the intense color of the copper. It really worked well. If you want your glaze w/slight color, then add a touch of color (i.e., the paint) directly to it and save yourself a step.
