Hempel's Thinner 08700 is a colorless thinning agent designed to enhance the flow of solvent-based paints and coatings. It dries quickly and delivers high-quality results. While thinning is not always necessary with Hempel products, it can be used to adjust viscosity for proper application, especially when a low film thickness is required (e.g., as a sealer coat) or if the paint has become too thick due to cold weather.
