White spirit, also known as mineral spirits or petroleum spirits, is a clear, colorless liquid solvent that is derived from petroleum distillation. It is commonly used as a paint thinner, a cleaning agent, and a degreasing agent in industrial and household applications.
White spirit is a mixture of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, including hexane, heptane, and benzene. It has a characteristic odor and evaporates quickly, leaving no residue.
Some common uses of white spirit include:
- Thinning oil-based paints and varnishes to make them easier to apply.
- Cleaning paintbrushes, rollers, and other painting tools.
- Removing grease, oil, and dirt from metal surfaces.
- Cleaning car engines and other mechanical parts.
- Removing adhesive residue from surfaces.
