Thinner
Thinner is a volatile solvent or a blend of solvents formulated to reduce the viscosity of paints, coatings, lacquers, and varnishes for improved application properties. It enhances flow, leveling, drying time, and finish quality. Thinners are available in different grades tailored to specific resins or coatings—such as nitrocellulose, alkyd, polyurethane, or epoxy systems—and are crucial in industrial, automotive, wood, and general-purpose applications.
