THINNER SYNTHÉTIQUE

Forever Synthetic Thinner is a solvent specially formulated to dilute paints and varnishes based on synthetic resins. Essential in the professional painter's workshop as well as for the demanding DIY enthusiast, it guarantees optimal application by adjusting the viscosity of your products according to the project requirements and working conditions.

Technical Specifications

  • Solvent for paints and coatings based on synthetic resins
  • Flash point between 4 and 6°C: highly flammable product requiring careful handling
  • Boiling point between 109.6 and 111.6°C
  • Complies with REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006
  • Available in 1L and 5L containers to suit small and large projects

  • VOC content: 782 to 785 grams per litre

Application Advice

Use Synthetic Thinner to dilute your enamels and synthetic resin coatings according to the paint manufacturer's recommendations, typically up to 10% of the total volume. This dilution improves brush or roller application and facilitates spray gun application by adjusting viscosity to ambient temperature conditions.

Always work in a well-ventilated space, away from any source of ignition, flames or sparks. The particularly low flash point of this product requires maximum care during handling and storage. Reseal the container tightly after use.

For professional spray gun applications, gradually adjust the dilution by performing preliminary tests. The thinner also enables effective cleaning of tools and equipment after use with synthetic paints.

Pro tips

For your professional projects, opt for the 5L container which offers better value and minimises interruptions. When using a spray gun, add thinner gradually while testing viscosity: excessive dilution compromises coverage and film durability. Use sealed containers for your mixtures to limit evaporation and fumes in the workshop. With a flash point between 35°C and 40°C, this product requires particular attention in warm weather: avoid direct sunlight exposure on site and ensure adequate ventilation, especially indoors.

FAQ

What types of paints can I use this synthetic thinner with?

This thinner is specifically formulated for synthetic enamel paints and coatings based on synthetic alkyd resins. It is perfectly suited for decorative and industrial painting work, particularly on metal surfaces.

What is the difference between synthetic thinner and white spirit?

Synthetic thinner is specifically formulated for synthetic alkyd resins and offers balanced drying time with optimal fluidity. Its composition and technical characteristics, notably its density of 0.78 - 0.82, make it a more suitable product for modern enamel paints than traditional white spirit.

Can I use this product to clean my brushes and rollers?

Yes, synthetic thinner is effective for cleaning tools used to apply synthetic paints. It removes residues before they harden. Ensure you work in a well-ventilated space and follow all safety instructions.

What precautions should I take when using this product?

The flash point of this product is between 35°C and 40°C. Work only in a well-ventilated space, away from any heat source or ignition source. Consult the safety data sheet to understand all personal and collective protection measures to be observed.

Which container size should I choose for my needs?

The 1L container suits homeowners and occasional small projects. For painters and regular use, the 5L format is more economical and practical for job sites.
