Winsor & Newton Distilled Turpentine for Oil Colours
Winsor & Newton Distilled Turpentine is a premium-quality traditional solvent derived from pine trees, perfect for artists working with oil-based media. Known for its powerful thinning and cleaning properties, this distilled turpentine is ideal for making your own painting mediums, reducing paint viscosity, and enhancing flow especially when working with pale colours.
Designed to clean both wet and dried oil, alkyd, and acrylic paints from brushes and tools, it is also effective in removing varnish layers such as Dammar Varnish in preparation for re-varnishing. Due to its strength, use cautiously and dispose of responsibly. Do not use if the liquid has thickened.
This essential solvent is a studio staple for artists using Winsor & Newton Artists’ Oil Colour, Winton Oil Colour, or Griffin Alkyd Fast Drying Oil Colour.
