SOLVENTS, THINNERS & DEGREASERS
We manufacture and supply a range of solvents, thinners and degreasers for industrial, automotive, maintenance and general coating applications. The range includes products for thinning compatible coatings, cleaning spray equipment and tools, surface preparation, and the removal of grease, oil and other contaminants. Products should be selected according to the coating system, substrate and intended application.
01 Cleaning Thinners
Cleaning Thinners is a fast-acting solvent blend formulated for the cleaning and maintenance of paint application equipment, tools and machinery. It is suitable for cleaning brushes, spray guns and other equipment after use with compatible solvent-based coatings, and can assist with the removal of uncured or dried paint residues where appropriate.
Key uses:
-
Cleaning brushes and painting tools
-
Cleaning spray guns and application equipment
-
General maintenance cleaning of compatible machinery and equipment
-
Removing paint residues from suitable solvent-resistant surfaces
Important:
Cleaning Thinners is intended primarily as a cleaning solvent and should not automatically be used for thinning coatings unless specifically recommended for that product.
Available in 750ml, 5L, 25L, 200L
02 Spraying Thinners
Spraying Thinners are formulated solvent blends designed to provide the correct thinning, flow and application characteristics for compatible solvent-based coating systems. The correct thinner should always be selected according to the specific coating being applied.
Available types:
-
A Grade / Lacquer Thinners – for general use with compatible QD enamels, NC lacquers and QD primers.
-
Heavy Duty Industrial Thinners – for compatible two-pack and heavy-duty industrial coating systems.
-
Retarder Thinners – formulated to improve flow and levelling and to assist where slower solvent evaporation is required.
-
QD Enamel Thinners – for compatible quick-drying enamels, QD primers and high-gloss enamel systems.
-
2K Thinners – for compatible 2K enamels and 4:1 MS primer systems.
-
Epoxy Thinners – for compatible epoxy coatings.
-
Etch Thinners – for compatible one-pack etch primers.
-
Polyurethane Thinners – for compatible polyurethane enamels and PU DTM coatings.
-
Mineral Turpentine – for compatible alkyd enamels, varnishes, plaster primers, undercoats and truck/tractor enamels.
Available in 750 ml, 5 L, 25 L and 200 L.
03 Galvanised Iron Cleaner
Galvanised Iron Cleaner is a surface-preparation cleaner formulated for galvanised steel and other suitable zinc-coated surfaces before painting. It helps remove surface contamination, oxidation products, dirt, grease and residues that can interfere with coating adhesion.
Key uses:
-
Preparation of galvanised iron before coating
-
Removal of surface contamination and residues
-
Helps improve adhesion of compatible primers and topcoats
-
Suitable for new and weathered galvanised surfaces, subject to correct preparation
Important:
After cleaning, the surface should be rinsed or treated as specified for the coating system and allowed to dry thoroughly before painting.
Available in 1L, 5L, 25L and 200L
05 Degreaser
Degreaser is a fast-acting cleaning product formulated to remove grease, oil, wax, dirt and other surface
contaminants before coating or maintenance work. It is suitable for use on compatible industrial, automotive and general-purpose surfaces where effective degreasing is required.
Key uses:
-
Removal of grease and oil
-
Surface preparation before painting
-
Cleaning of compatible metal and industrial surfaces
-
General maintenance cleaning
Important:
After cleaning, the surface should be rinsed or treated as specified for the coating system and allowed to dry thoroughly before painting.
Available in 1L, 5L, 25L and 200L
