Acetone

Forever acetone is a versatile organic solvent, essential for cleaning, degreasing and surface preparation before paint application. Also known as propan-2-one or dimethyl ketone, this solution offers maximum effectiveness in dissolving organic compounds and rapid elimination of residues. With the chemical formula C₃H₆O, it is the simplest ketone, guaranteeing rapid action and almost immediate evaporation that reduces waiting times between work stages.

Technical specifications

• Chemical formula: C₃H₆O (propan-2-one)
• Highly volatile and flammable organic solvent
• Simplest ketonic compound with symmetrical molecular structure
• Fast evaporation allowing immediate work resumption
• Effective for dissolving organic compounds and removing contamination
• Available in 1L and 5L containers
• Classified as highly flammable liquid and vapours (H225)

Application advice

For optimal degreasing of surfaces before painting, use a lint-free cloth soaked in acetone. Make a single one-directional pass over the surface, then discard the cloth immediately. This technique avoids redistributing contaminants on the cleaned area and guarantees a perfectly clean surface.

Acetone's rapid evaporation allows you to resume work within seconds, minimising site interruptions. Always work in a well-ventilated space and keep the product away from any heat source or flame. Never pour residues down the drain: acetone and containers must be treated as hazardous waste and disposed of in accordance with regulations.

For critical bonding applications or demanding surface preparation, acetone is the benchmark solution thanks to its ability to remove oils, greases and other organic contamination without leaving residue.
