Sure, they can change it, but the paint is already so thick... I can't imagine them doing much to it. But I'm open to seeing new stuff and running all the tests again.
May not be a matter of making it thicker. Thickening agents don't necessarily weigh more than the liquid they are added to. I agree that they probably won't do much of anything in any case though.

LOL

But, I've probably failed to catch one detail- What was the paint that has been distributed so far? Four Star? If so, I offer the following:

Stars -> Plain English Translation
4 -> Breaks Often
3 -> Breaks Occasionally
2 -> Might Break
1 -> Won't Break (i.e. the ReBall replacer)

Please excuse me if this has been covered but what about cleaning this really thick fill out of barrels and off masks when it does break, esspecially if they do make it thicker/denser?

I didn't say any of this stuff was true. In fact, I said it was "fishy".

That said, "thicker" doesn't necessarily equate with "more dense". For example, butter is "thicker" than milk, but far less dense.

I believe that is only for refrigerated butter.

the current fill isn't any thicker than decent quality .68 paint fill. It's nice, but not peanut-butter thick or anything.

Thats not the way it looked to me in that video when the EMR fill (which is a pain to get out of barrels if not taken care of real quick) was running and the yellow from the .50 cal wasn't

The fill is fine. It's a nice thick fill that you would see and expect in tournament paint. I have no complaints about the fill what-so-ever.
