Maimeri Thinner for Oil Paints (No. 646), 75 ml
Maimeri Oil Paint Thinner (No. 646) is a standard white spirit made from refined petroleum distillate. It is intended for artists to thin oil paints and clean brushes, palettes, and tools. It lowers the paint’s viscosity and speeds up the drying of underlayers, allowing you to apply the next layer of paint sooner. Its formula creates a leaner layer of paint suitable for underpainting and is one of the trusted products from a traditional Italian brand that has been in business since 1923.
