Description

Nitrocellulose thinner or N C Thinner formula, also known as nitro thinner or cellulose thinner, is a solvent specifically formulated for use with nitrocellulose-based lacquers. It is widely used in the automotive industry, woodworking, and musical instrument finishing. Nitrocellulose thinner is used to dilute these lacquers for easier application, as well as for cleaning tools and equipment.

 Key points of N C thinner formula

  1. Composition: Nitrocellulose thinner is typically composed of a blend of solvents, such as toluene, acetone, butyl acetate, and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The specific formulation can vary between manufacturers and products.
  2. Thinning lacquer: The primary purpose of nitrocellulose thinner is to thin nitrocellulose lacquers, reducing their viscosity and making them easier to apply. It allows for more control over the application, providing a smoother and more even finish.
  3. Cleaning equipment: Nitrocellulose thinner is also used to clean brushes, spray guns, and other painting equipment after using nitrocellulose lacquers. It helps dissolve and remove dried or excess lacquer from the equipment, facilitating maintenance and prolonging the life of the tools.
  4. Safety precautions: Nitrocellulose thinner is a flammable substance and should be handled with care. It should be used in a well-ventilated area, away from open flames or sparks. It is recommended to wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and goggles, when handling the product.
  5. Compatibility: Nitrocellulose thinner is specifically designed for use with nitrocellulose-based lacquers. It may not be compatible with other types of lacquers, paints, or finishes. It’s important to ensure that the thinner is appropriate for the specific lacquer or finish you are using by referring to the manufacturer’s instructions or consulting with professionals in the field.

As always, it’s advisable from CFS technical team to follow the instructions provided by the formulator  of the nitrocellulose thinner to ensure safe and effective use.
