I was specifically speaking to "traditional" oil paint and "traditional" mediums (like a standard mixture of Damar varnish, oil & turpentine medium).
Alkyd paint, Liquin, Galkyd, etc. are not considered to be entirely "traditional." With materials like these you have more latitude working within the "fat over lean" rule. The best way to approach working with these newer materials is to read and follow the manufacturer's suggestions on the label of each product.
