airearlo por 3 segundos para que se afine

Explanation:
This is a more exact translation. I don't think that just "airear" is enough... many things can happen when you air something: it can dry, evaporate completely, change colors, etc

Thin significa \" reducir\" \" afinar\",\"atenuar\", adelgazar\", \" diluir\". Sin embargo, me parece que incluírlo en la traducción es un error.

Aclaración para Dany

Explanation:
Quise usar la ventanita para agregar una aclaración, pero hay problemas con el programa. Por eso me vine para acá. :)

Thin significa " reducir" " afinar","atenuar", adelgazar", " diluir". Sin embargo, me parece que incluírlo en la traducción es un error.

Diluir al aire? No.
Adelgazar al aire o por medio del aire? tampoco.
Atenuar al aire? Menos.

Te das cuenta?

Se me ocurre que si solamente decimos "dejar al aire" queda implícito que lo dejamos al aire para obtener los resultados deseados.

Es lo mismo que decir:" coma menos". No es necesario decir " coma menos para adelgazar" o " adelgace comiendo menos" pues está implícito.

Saludos,

Bertha
