Mineral Spirits

Product Description

Mineral Spirits (<1% Aromatics) is a low-odor, versatile solvent ideal for cleaning, degreasing, thinning, and a wide range of industrial applications. Its high solvency helps dissolve and remove grease, oils, resins, and other residues while its low aromatic content provides a lower-odor alternative to traditional mineral spirits.

Common uses include thinning oil-based paints, stains, varnishes, polyurethanes, and inks, as well as cleaning brushes, tools, equipment, and surfaces.

While Mineral Spirits (<1% Aromatics) is not VOC-compliant for many applications, certain exemptions may apply in California, including specific aircraft coating and specialized industrial applications. Always verify applicable local and state regulations for the intended use.
