Product Information

The correct choice of auto paint thinners can make the difference between applying a successful topcoat, and leaving a finish covered in sags or an orange peel texture.

Blending thinners are used on auto body panels where the paint is being faded out over a small area. While most of these solvents are available in standard sizes of 1 liter and 4 liters, each of them comes with different composition, strength, and solubility.I really think it’s the amount of thinners you are using over the top of different finishes- combined with a poor quality paint and not enough prep. The 2k thinners are among the pure thinners that are generally used for thinning polyester basecoats, 2K paints, lacquers, pearlescent, and candy base paints.

Paint thinner is one essential item you will use whenever you want to paint the walls or furniture in your home. Transporting the base chemicals needed for these products is a challenge, and there is a rising supply issue as a result. Thinners lower the viscosity of paint materials and their solvent composition affects overall drying times. MEK is a strong, slow-drying thinner for epoxies, lacquers, adhesives and polyester resins used in fibreglass repairs.

You should essentially use them to blend/dissolve into your preferred primers, paints, oil-based coatings, varnishes, etc, to reduce their viscosity.

However, professional paint sprayers have a range of additional thinners available that complete different processes. Plus, the vapors emitted by the reaction of thinner and vinyl-based plastic materials can also be very harmful. If you are using these toxic solvents for the first time, make sure you know how to use them correctly to avoid damage.It contains very little recycled product, making it a suitable thinner for inks, varnishes and all single-pack paints that will be topcoat finishes.
