JunkPile Posted September 24, 2013 Posted September 24, 2013 Just what exactly is "cheap lacquer thinner" that I often see referred to? Local Home Depots, neighborhood hardware stores, and non automotive paint stores all have the same medium drying product. There seem to be no options as to expensive or cheap without buying in 5 gallon size at discount automotive paint store. Thanks, Chuck
Kit Basher Posted September 24, 2013 Posted September 24, 2013 Perhaps "generic" would be a better term. The stuff you're seeing is what folks are talking about. As opposed to specialized thinners for certain paints, which are generally much "hotter" and more expensive. I usually buy a gallon, but a quart would last a long time for hobby use.
Erik Smith Posted September 24, 2013 Posted September 24, 2013 I use Klean Strip - it's available at most hardware and one-stop shopping stores. It's about $7 for a quart.

JunkPile Posted September 24, 2013 Author Posted September 24, 2013 OK. That is what I use. Thought there was something I was missing....guess not. I buy it by the gallon @ $15.00 or so. Thanks
charlie8575 Posted September 27, 2013 Posted September 27, 2013 Whatever you buy, try not to buy the "clean air" stuff. From my experience, it doesn't work for beans. If you have no choice at your local hardware store or box store, it might be worth the money to get the auto lacquer thinner. Charlie Larkin
