Licon standard thinner 1ltr
KSh 400.00
Licon Standard Thinner 1L is a versatile solvent used to thin oil-based paints, lacquers, and varnishes while enabling easy cleaning of brushes and painting tools. Suitable for painters, contractors, and DIY users, it ensures smooth application and consistent finish on small- to medium-scale painting projects.
Licon Standard Thinner is a petroleum-based solvent formulated to reduce the viscosity of oil-based paints and coatings. By thinning paint, it enhances spreadability, improves coverage, and provides more control during application. Additionally, it dissolves paint residues, facilitating effective cleaning of brushes, rollers, and other tools.
The controlled evaporation rate allows for uniform drying without streaks, ensuring professional-quality finishes on coated surfaces.
H2 – Material Quality, Durability and Environmental Performance
This thinner is refined to remove impurities that could affect paint performance, delivering consistent results in Kenyan workshop and construction conditions. It is suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor use when proper ventilation is maintained.
The solvent itself does not provide protective qualities to surfaces; its primary role is in paint processing and cleaning. Users should follow proper handling and disposal practices to minimize environmental impact.
H2 – Installation, Handling and Compatibility
Application involves mixing the thinner with oil-based paints or using it directly for cleaning tools. Measure according to the paint manufacturer’s instructions to achieve desired consistency. Brushes and rollers should be soaked or wiped with the thinner after use, and then allowed to dry.
Protective gloves and eyewear are recommended to prevent skin and eye contact. Licon Standard Thinner is compatible with oil-based paints, varnishes, and lacquers but should not be used with water-based coatings or reactive chemicals.
H2 – Typical Applications in Kenya
Licon Standard Thinner is commonly used for small- and medium-scale painting and maintenance projects. Contractors and painters apply it to doors, furniture, metal fixtures, and interior walls. Workshops rely on it for cleaning painting tools and equipment, while homeowners use it for DIY projects and minor touch-ups.
It complements other oil-based paints and painting accessories available in the Shop at Ngong Hills Merchants.
