Youse guys still get to use turpentine? It is outlawed here in most of the US...... Almost all our paints are water-based here..we are trying to save the good air for people south of the equator. |

Most paints used here now are water-based too, but enamel-based (oil-based) paints are still available, but less popular. There is now a new product called "Aquanamel" by Dulux which is a water-based enamel paint for hard-wearing use. |

Yep, "turps" as it is commonly known can be purchased almost anywhere . Apart from thinning paint, it is a great cleaning solvent . Had a stain on my white nylon shirt and it dissoved that stain right away . Of course it dissolved the shirt too . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . :o |

| 462393 | 2006-06-14 03:30:00 | Turpentine is great for thinning down the good old lead based primers and topcoats as well.... | godfather (25) | ||

| 462395 | 2006-06-14 04:23:00 | Of course, there's turpentine and turpentine. What we usually get is "mineral turps". Real turpentine (26.1911encyclopedia.org/T/TU/TURPENTINE.htm) doesn't seem too nasty according to these safety notes (www.physchem.ox.ac.uk/MSDS/TU/turpentine.html). But it seems to be a good treatment for tapeworms. Mineral turps is a petroleum product. It's probably illegal in parts of the US because it can be inhaled, and that might be dangerous. (Unlike guns. ;) ) |
