Interesting new product

Had to run to Lowes for some Acetone. On an upper shelf was a new solvent I haven't seen before...

COMPLETELY biodegradeable...Can be poured down the drain...

Substitute for Laq thinner, Acetone, Xylene, Toluene, MEK.

Can be thinned with WATER....

Klean Strip Natural Multi-purpose Solvent. It was $12 and change for a quart....vs $16 and change for a gallon of Acetone...so it's a bit pricey...

I could see this being used to safely clean airbrushes etc...and being able to pour the remains down the drain instead of having to evap etc.

Smells funny...like a weak peppermint mixture. Higher flashpoint....EPA friendly...100% renewable..made of ethyl lactate.. of interest is that it's combustible but can be cut with water..
