A: Hi Dianna, when painting with a brush or roller, add approximately 8 oz per gallon of paint. If paint is thick, more Floetrol may be gradually added, up to 16 oz per gallon of paint. When painting with an airless sprayer, add up to 32 oz per gallon of paint.

A: Yes, this mixes with Amsterdam Acrylic Paint. However, if you are using it for pouring as many do, as a cell activator Australian Floetrol is hands down the best. For that technique in art, although more expensive, you will get the results you want.
