If you never had a problem with it then I would stick with it. Paint way back when and the paint that is out today are a lot different. They take a long time to develop and research. They are not meant to be thinned out unless they have to be due to weather conditions. I am not really sure why you would mix it 50/50 because you would be cutting all of the properties in half and they would not perform like they are supposed to. Also with Penetrol you are only supposed to use 1 quart to every gallon of paint. Flood tells you not to put any more into it. Like I said if it works, don't fix a thing that's not broken.
