How do you dissolve aspirin in oil?

Aspirin is not readily soluble in oil due to its polar nature, but it can be dissolved in oil with the help of heat and a solvent. To do this, gently heat the oil to a temperature that is safe for the specific oil type, then add a small amount of aspirin and stir until it dissolves. Alternatively, you can use a small amount of a suitable organic solvent, like ethanol or acetone, to dissolve the aspirin first and then mix it with the oil. Always ensure proper safety precautions when handling chemicals and heat.

Can safflower oil be used as a paint solvent?

Safflower oil is used to dilute oil paint and is the base for many oil paints, but is not a solvent. A solvent dissolves the paint completely. Adding more oil to oil paint will only thin the color out into the solution. To dissolve oil paint use a odorless thinner available through art supply stores or turpentine (preferably odorless, a lot of people have a bad reaction to turpentine). Safflower oil will work if you want to thin the paint but will not clean your brushes.
