Mineral Turpentine Oil (MTO)

Mineral Turpentine Oil (MTO), also recognized as industrial white spirit, is an aliphatic petroleum solvent fraction. It offers controlled evaporation, mild odor, and excellent solvency for drying oils, synthetic alkyd resins, and bituminous paints.

Primary Applications:

  • ✓ Alkyd Enamel Dilution: Modifies brushability and leveling in architectural oil paints.
  • ✓ Wood Preservatives & Varnishes: Solvent base for penetrating wood stains and varnishes.
  • ✓ Industrial Metal Degreasing: Removes heavy machine oils, stamping greases, and protective waxes.

Buyer FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between NC Thinner and Enamel Thinner?
NC (Nitrocellulose) Thinner contains high-solvency oxygenated solvents (esters and ketones) designed for rapid drying and high gloss in spray paints and auto refinishing. Enamel Thinner is primarily composed of hydrocarbon fractions designed for slower evaporation, ensuring proper brush leveling and flow in synthetic oil-based enamels.
Do you supply formulated thinners in private label packaging?
Yes. We collaborate with regional paint brands, hardware distributors, and automotive supply stockists to supply custom thinner formulations in 200L barrels suitable for regional repacking or direct industrial use.
