Introduction
Lacquer Thinner is usually a mixture of solvents able to dissolve a number of different
resins or plastics used in modern lacquer.
Previously, lacquer thinners frequently contained alkyl esters like butyl or amyl acetate,
ketones like acetone or methyl ethyl ketone, aromatic hydrocarbons like toluene, ethers
such as glycol cello solves, and/or alcohols.
Lacquer thinners are certainly effective household items for the removal of sheen on
surfaces. In order to understand the uses of a lacquer thinner, you need to know what
lacquer is in the first place. It is clear or usually colored that dries away by the
evaporation of a solvent. A lacquer thinner is a simple solution that breaks or dissolve
down the thick properties of varnishes and paints, lacquer, oils, grease and other strong
adhesive material. It is used to dissolve, dilute and clean up basic lacquer items in the
house. Lacquer thinners are a little caustic for oil paints and this may cause creaks in the
sheen of the surface. It may deteriorate the surfaces and fabrics of items in the house.
You need to make sure that you apply it in a small and rather inconspicuous area before
you decide to apply it on a bigger countertop or surface. The best uses for a lacquer
thinner have been stated below with detail. You can easily find a lacquer thinner in the
market and use it to remove the sheen or gloss on any surface in your house. Make sure
you apply it slowly and carefully without dabbing the thinner on in big amounts.

Vision
Our vision serves as the framework for our Product and guides every aspect of our
business by describing what we need to accomplish in order to continue achieving
sustainable, quality growth.
Use Of Thinner
1 - Removing Tar
You can easily remove tar, tree sap and grease from surfaces in your house. Turpentine is
a very helpful lacquer thinner for oil and alkyd-based paints plus varnishes. In addition to
that, other products have showed up in the market and they perform the same tar-
removing function with relatively less odorous and toxic vapors. Some lacquer thinners
even have mineral spirits.
2 - Dissolve Shellac andAniline Dyes
Lacquer thinners are also used to dissolve shellac and aniline dyes in the house. It
contains denatured alcohol that acts like a strong cleaning agent on the sheen and gloss of
surfaces. Lacquer thinners can also be used for cleaning purposes.
3 - CleanPaint Spots
With kerosene component in the lacquer thinner, you can use it as a strong solvent as
well. Lacquer thinners typically do not contain such an element but, once they do, they
make sure that unnecessary paint spots are removed easily from the surface you desire. It
can remove hardened stains and paint on knobs of doors and other spots. You can easily
rub that stain off with a few drops of lacquer thinner.

4 - SheenThinning
Since lacquer thinners are usually made up of 2 solvents like amyl or ethyl, you can
easily use them to thin down the sheen or gloss and clean surfaces with them. Spray
equipment is usually the way to use a lacquer thinner. They easily soften and thin away
the paints that have turned solid and flaky on smooth surfaces. They also remove residue
from cements and plastics. Varnish stains and paint spots can be removed on clothing of
natural fibers by lacquer thinners as well. Remember to avoid using a nylon brush on
solvents since the acetone in the thinner may weaken the bristles of the brush.
