Disposing of Thinners ETC...

So..

how do you dispose of lacquer thinner or enamel thinners and stuff... like after u wash a brush or something...

its bad to put it down the drain!

Its very bad to put them down the drain,

But it does make AWSOME weed killer. :D

Meh i usually drink this stuff by i heard its bad for you so i stoppped J/K

nah i dispose of it in my neighbors yard he never knows anythingJ/K

try lighting it on fire

or throw it at a ford

give it to your sister

put it in your cars gastank

throw it in the sea (dont worry if you kill a few fish lifes like that sometimes)

all of th avobe are jokes

SERIOUSLY i just let it evaporate or try the weed killer ideas (also makes an exellent degreaser)

Hmm..I always just flush it down my kitchen sink.. :confused:

What's so bad about that? :confused:

I try to reuse it as much as I can. Generally mineral spirits work even when extremely cloudy with paint.

On the off topic, CSC works great even after restoring 12 paint jobs gone wrong :)

Hey. You guys should dispose of your thinners, etc. the right way. Dumping them outside and in the sink is really bad. Doing this will eventually screw up a lot of stuff. Some auto parts stores will take this stuff for you for a small fee ($1-2 or so). Or, call your city and ask. There are better ways to do it than that. :(

Oh, ok! Thanks for the heads up.

The stuff i use breaks down in water so it just gets washed down the kitchen sink

So what is this secret stuff you use primera man? care to share? :)

It's a engine cleaner called "CONKER"... we use it at work for washing oil and grease off our locomotive engines. Like i said the really good thing about it, is that its brillant for cleaning and then washes up in water.
