Kerosene - Blue

Versatile blue hydrocarbon solvent designed for conventional kerosene heaters and suitable for use as a cleaning agent (degreaser) and surface cleanser.

Features:

• Boiling range – slightly oily, slow ‘tail’.
• Slow evaporation rate.
• Good solvency for many organic compounds.
• Minimum residue on drying.
• Competitively priced.
• Blue liquid with a mild odour.
• Typically used as a lamp, heater and blow lamp fuel, engine degreaser and wood-fire
  starter.

Packaging:

Kerosene – Blue is available in bulk, IBCs (1500 litre bulk containers), 200 litre drums,
20 litre containers and 4 × 4 litre and 12 × 1 litre cartons.

Safety:

Please consult the MSDS on Kerosene – Blue before use.

Toluene

Aromatic hydrocarbon solvent that performs well in situations requiring a high level of solvency. Toluene is common in many coating formulations, including acrylic thinners and 2 pack epoxies.

Features:

• Removing carpet and vinyl glue.
• Used in chemical manufacturing.
• Fast evaporating solvent.
• Colourless liquid with a characteristic odour.
• Solvency – Toluene can be included in any formulation where boosted solvency power
  is required and will combine well with other organic compounds. It has a very high solvency
  of greases, oils and general dirt as well as sophisticated polymeric surface coatings and
  specific high molecular-weight organics.

Packaging:

Toluene is available in bulk, IBCs (1500 litre bulk containers), 200 litre drums, 20 litre
containers and 4 ×4 litre and 6 × 1 litre cartons.

Safety:

Please consult the MSDS on Toluene before use.

Mineral Turpentine

Hydrocarbon solvent specifically designed for use in many paint formulations and associated thinners. Mineral Turpentine is one of the most widely used hydrocarbon solvents as it combines good solvency with controlled evaporation. Use Mineral Turpentine for thinning paints, linseed oil, waxes and polishes, metal cleaning and clean-up of brushes and equipment after painting.

Features:

• Mid-range evaporation rate.
• Good solvency for oil, grease, wax and silicone.
• Relatively low cost.
• No residue on drying.
• Versatility – Mineral Turpentine can be included in any formulation where controlled
  evaporation is required and is miscible with all other organic solvents.
• Solvency – Mineral Turpentine has good solvency for greases, oils, and general dirt –
  as well as for alkyd resins in enamel paints.

Packaging:

Mineral Turpentine is available in bulk, IBCs (1500 litre bulk containers), 200 litre drums,
20 litre containers and 4 × 4 litre and 12 × 1 litre cartons.

Safety:

Please consult the MSDS on Mineral Turpentine before use.

White Spirits

A widely used hydrocarbon solvent that provides good solvency with controlled evaporation.

Features:

• Relatively low cost.
• Removes stains.
• No residual on drying.
• Mid-range evaporation rate.
• Can be used for multi-purpose cleaning and thinning applications.
• Typically used as a paint thinner and cleaner, degreaser and home dry cleaning fluid.
• Good solvency for oils, greases, waxes, silicones, general dirt, as well as alkyd resins
  in enamel paints.

Packaging:

White Spirits is available in bulk, IBCs (1500 litre bulk containers), 200 lire drums, 20 litre
containers and 4 × 4 and 6 × 1 litre cartons.

Safety:

Please consult the MSDS on White Spirits before use.

Xylene

An aromatic hydrocarbon solvent that performs well in situations requiring a high level of solvency. Xylene is common to many coating formulations, including general industrial enamels, 2 pack epoxies and polyurethanes.

Features:

• High solvency.
• Mid range evaporation rate.
• A widely available and used solvent for specialised uses in the chemical industry.
• Versatility – Xylene can be included in any formulation where boosted solvency power
  is required and will combine well with other organic compounds.
• Solvency – Xylene has high solvency of greases, oils and general dirt as well as
  sophisticated polymeric surface coatings and specific high molecular-weight organics.

Packaging:

Xylene is available in bulk, IBCs (1500 and 1000 litre bulk containers), 200 litre drums,
20 litre containers, 10 litre cans and 6 × 1 litre cartons.

Safety:

Please consult the MSDS on Xylene before use.
