Solvent Chemical is liquid organic chemicals used to dissolve solid materials. Solvents can be made from natural sources such as turpentine and the citrus solvents, but most are derived from petroleum or other synthetic sources. Solvents are used widely because they dissolve materials like resins and plastics, and because they evaporate quickly and cleanly.
A Paint Thinner is a solvent used to thin oil-based paints or clean up after their use. Paint Thinner is used to remove oil-based paint from brushes, rollers, equipment, and surfaces. However, there are many other applications and uses for paint thinner.
