Anything that isn't traditionally used as a gas burning fuel source should be prohibited from use as cooking gas. If in emergency and stranded on an island, maybe it would be a good idea.
To a degree, but if you are concerned use lacquer thinner.
Yes, you can use a lacquer thinner on carbon fiber. However, when doing so, make sure you water the thinner down first or add it to a solvent.
You can glue steel. De-grease it thoroughly first with gas or lacquer thinner, then use J B Weld.
yes, mixture of 1/2 clear lacquer and 1/2 lacquer thinner. You can also use polyurethene spray
Yes, adding lacquer thinner to gasoline is generally considered dangerous and not advisable. Lacquer thinner is a solvent that can alter the combustion properties of gasoline, potentially leading to engine damage, reduced performance, and increased emissions. Furthermore, mixing these substances can create harmful fumes and increase the risk of fire or explosion. It's best to use products as intended and follow manufacturer guidelines.
NO, all you will have is thinner, less effective paint. Primer has a totally different makeup.
Lacquer thinner can be harmful to the skin as it contains strong solvents that can cause irritation, redness, and chemical burns upon contact. Prolonged exposure may lead to dermatitis, resulting in dryness, cracking, and inflammation. Additionally, the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in lacquer thinner can be absorbed through the skin, potentially leading to systemic toxicity and other health issues. It's essential to use protective gear when handling lacquer thinner to minimize these risks.
Urethanes react with water and alcohols. To use lacquer thinner you need to be sure that it contains no IPO or IPA. Cheap lacquer thinners probably contain mainly toluol xylol and ketones; these should be OK. Just thin a little urethane lacquer and its hardener with the lacqer thinner and let it stand or apply to a small test patch. If it froths or goes funny in any way; forget it
Paint thinner, acetone, naphtha, and lacquer thinner are all solvents but differ in composition and use. Acetone is a powerful solvent commonly used for cleaning and removing nail polish, while naphtha is a petroleum-based solvent often used for thinning oil-based paints and cleaning. Paint thinner is a general term that usually refers to mineral spirits, used to dilute oil-based paints, whereas lacquer thinner is a stronger solvent specifically designed for thinning lacquer-based paints and cleaning lacquer tools. Each solvent has its own evaporation rate and toxicity, making them suitable for different applications.
It may or may not be effective. Traditional lacquer is a nitrocellulose-based coating. Thinners for nitrocellulose include acetone and ethanol (drinking alcohol). Most nail polishes are nitrocellulose lacquers, and that's why acetone is used as a nail polish remover.In general, the rule for thinners is that you need to use the thinner that was originally used to make the coating, or which is sold to be a thinner for the coating. If what's on your brushes isn't lacquer, lacquer thinner may not work as well as a thinner designed for the coating, and it may not work at all.If you already have lacquer thinner somewhere, or some nail polish remover, why not try a little bit to see if it works?
Well, honey, technically you can use lacquer thinner with red oxide primer, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you want a hot mess on your hands. Lacquer thinner is pretty strong stuff and might not play nice with the primer, so proceed with caution and maybe do a test patch first. Just remember, I warned ya!
Yes, lacquer thinner can be used as a degreaser. It is a strong solvent that can effectively remove grease, oil, and other substances from surfaces. However, it is important to use it in a well-ventilated area and follow safety precautions due to its strong chemical properties.
