CNT-88 Lacquer Thinner - 55 Gallon Drum

CNT-88 is made from 100% virgin solvents rather than recycled or reclaimed solvents. Virgin solvents provide consistent evaporation rates and purity, which matters for color accuracy when thinning lacquers and acrylics. The medium dry rate balances flow time with flash-off speed.

Yes. CNT-88 is a double-duty thinner that works with both lacquer and acrylic paint systems. It thins the coating to spray viscosity and cleans equipment after use. The medium evaporation rate gives adequate flow and leveling time before the solvent flashes off.

Lacquer thinner stored in a sealed drum in a cool, dry area maintains its effectiveness indefinitely. Once opened, keep the drum sealed between uses to prevent evaporation and contamination. Follow OSHA and local fire code requirements for flammable solvent storage.

Yes. The 55-gallon drum is the bulk purchase option for shops that use lacquer thinner daily for equipment cleaning, paint thinning, and surface preparation. Cost per gallon is lower than smaller containers. Ensure your shop has proper storage for a full drum of flammable solvent.

Lacquer thinner is a flammable solvent. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from ignition sources. Use in a ventilated spray booth or work area. Wear chemical-resistant gloves and safety glasses. Follow the Safety Data Sheet for spill response and disposal procedures.
