And the main reason is its ability to carry pigment after being reduced to water like consistency. The pigment mixes so well with the reducer it is never gritty, very fine. I hear a lot of acrylic users complain about build up on the tip, that is something I don't have to deal with. One more fun thing is the pearl and flake dry powders that I mix with an intercoat clear for some nice effects.

thanks. I kind of figured it was the thinness you can get with the paint as I see it in your work with the blending and light coats over other coats. Mine looks like I use a roller.
