Actually, it's rarely used in paint, and if it is, it would be as a dryer. Methanol is, however, a basic ingredient used to cut shellac to proper weight for application. Shellac is not paint, though.

CAN YOU USE METHYL HYDRATE TO THIN LATEX PAINTS?

Yes, methyl hydrate, also known as methanol or wood alcohol, can be used to thin latex paints, but it's not the most recommended option. It's important to note that using solvents other than water can affect the paint's properties and finish. For best results, it's advisable to use water or a paint-specific thinner designed for latex paints. Always check the paint manufacturer's guidelines before adding any solvents.

To maximize equilibrium yield of methanol would you use high or low temperature?

You would typically use a low temperature to maximize the equilibrium yield of methanol. This is because the reaction for methanol synthesis is exothermic, meaning that lower temperatures favor the forward reaction, resulting in higher yields of methanol.
