GREEN GUARD MINERAL TURPENTINE 5LIT
KSh 1,500.00
Green Guard Mineral Turpentine 5L is a high-purity solvent ideal for thinning oil-based paints, varnishes, and resins. It provides effective cleaning for brushes and surfaces while facilitating smooth paint application. Suitable for painters, contractors, and DIY enthusiasts across residential, commercial, and light industrial projects.
Green Guard Mineral Turpentine is a refined petroleum-based solvent specifically designed for thinning oil-based paints and varnishes. It reduces viscosity, improving flow and coverage during application, while allowing longer working times for detailed finishing. The solvent also dissolves residues, facilitating easy cleaning of tools and equipment.
It evaporates at a controlled rate, enabling smooth, even coats without leaving streaks or compromising the integrity of the paint film.
H2 – Material Quality, Durability and Environmental Performance
This mineral turpentine is highly refined to remove impurities that may affect coating quality. It maintains stable performance under typical Kenyan workshop and construction site conditions, including moderate heat and humidity. When used correctly in ventilated spaces, it minimizes odors and supports safer handling.
While it aids in paint application and cleaning, it does not provide protective properties on surfaces. Users should avoid environmental release and follow standard disposal practices for petroleum-based solvents.
H2 – Installation, Handling and Compatibility
Application involves pouring, dipping, or mixing the turpentine with oil-based paints or varnishes. Shake or stir before use to ensure uniform consistency when thinning coatings. Tools can be cleaned by soaking or wiping with turpentine, followed by drying.
Protective gloves and eyewear are recommended during handling to prevent skin and eye contact. Mineral turpentine is compatible with oil-based paints, varnishes, resins, and related petroleum-based coatings. It should not be mixed with water-based paints or reactive chemicals.
H2 – Typical Applications in Kenya
Green Guard Mineral Turpentine is widely used for paint thinning, surface cleaning, and maintenance tasks across various Kenyan projects. Contractors and painters apply it on walls, furniture, doors, and metal fixtures. Workshops use it to maintain equipment and clean painting tools, while homeowners rely on it for DIY painting and varnishing projects.
It pairs effectively with oil-based paints and varnishes available in the Shop and complements other surface preparation products in the Ngong Hills Merchants range.
