SENNELIER MINERAL SPIRIT

Mineral spirits have an advantage over vegetable-based spirits that it keeps better on contact with air. It is a thinner solvent than vegetable-based spirits and evaporated more slowly than Rectified Turpentine spirits. It is used to spread out oil-based colours or certain varnishes. Because of its high penetrative power, petroleum spirit gets deep into the paint. An excess accentuates the matte finish. It is also used to clean brushes covered in fresh colour and it does not dry out and does not stick like Rectified Turpentine spirits. Available in a 75ml and 250ml bottle. Price per bottle.
