KEY FEATURES
HEMPEL’S THINNER 08080:

HEMPEL PAINT is produced and supplied in such a way that thinning is normally not necessary provided the paint is properly mixed/stirred. However, if the paint is to be applied in a low film thickness (for instance as a “sealer coat”) or if the paint has become too thick, e.g. in cold weather, the HEMPEL THINNER(s) indicated on the product data sheet may be added to obtain a consistency most suitable for application. As a general rule, thinning should be kept at a minimum as the quality of the paint work will suffer from too liberal thinning. However, if application is to take place at high temperatures (air and/or steel), thinning may even beyond the limits mentioned on the data sheets exceptionally be necessary in order to avoid dry-spray and poor film formation. HEMPEL’S THINNERS are blended to give the best results with regard to brush ability, spray properties, etc. In some cases ordinary solvents may substitute.
