Classified as Low in Volatile Organic Compounds, with a solvent content of below 8%, Clean Spirit is safer for the environment, especially when compared with traditional solvents that are regarded as Very High VOC’s with 100% solvent content.The high-tech formulation of low VOC components is non-hazardous, virtually odourless, non-flammable and contains all biodegradable ingredients.

But it works better than white spirit on paints requiring meths such as BIN and also tung oil products. I wish I had read more reviews before I bought 4 Lts of this rubbish, which is going staright down the sink. When painting internally, there is no requirement to open windows and doors as when using White Spirit, etc.Highly effective water-based alternative to white spirit that is safer for users and the environment. The mix of high tech components are all readily biodegradable and suitable for cleaning paint brushes and general cleaning purposes. So, if you’re fortunate enough to look under 25 years of age, please do not be offended if asked for ID. Some mention that it is very useful to do the bulk cleaning of brushes with oil painting, while others say that it's not very good a cleaning oil based paints from brushes, and is effective for acrylic, but not at all for oil paint.
