that flatz brand  is omni brand acry enamel with flattner already mixed and reduced.  to make it work better use a hardner with it .  I use ppg A E  and flatten with thier flatter agent 1 quart flatter to 1 gallon of paint and the regular mix of hardner with the normal amount of reducer as well... good luck

wow... 1 quart of flat agent to a gallon of paint , then hardener, then reducer.  You end up with about 1 & 3/4  gallon of sprayable paint  material?

dunno man, when i pulled the label off of the one i bought it was an omni can underneath it all. of course it is already flattened then it is 4 to 1 to 1 , your right............  it worked ok for me but it is chaper to do the flatter agent yourself  in whatever color you want
