Formula for preparing NC Thinner and Auto Thinner

(2004)

I would be very much interested in manufacturing and distribute of NC Thinner to Sri Lankan market. I have obtained many formulas for preparing of NC thinner but still not found success. Every time I got complaints that my product is not suitable for thinning of Primers, all kinds of coatings, automotive spray paints etc.

I would be highly appreciated if you could give the best and accurate formula of making NC thinner by using solvents.

Thanking you, Yours truly,

You're welcome to ask the question, Mohammed, but my experience from posting 50 thousand questions here is that there is little chance you'll get a response. If you describe your non-working formulas and in what ways they didn't work, though, there is an excellent chance that someone will give you some hints about what you're doing wrong. Good luck.

Hello Sir,

It is so regrettable to state that this is my second letter to you of knowing a very important matter which effects my personal life. I want to know the best formula of manufacturing of NC Thinner. Kindly give me the best formulation in preparing of a quality thinner both NC thinner (For wood items) and Auto super thinner (For auto vehicles).

Also I am expecting your company collaboration to proceed with these products and any available other manufacturers such as Sealers, Varnishers, Lacquers etc.

Awaiting your response with many hopes.

Best regards, Yours truly,

Mohammed: as editor of the site I predicted that none of our thousands of readers would give you the info you requested and I told you why, and suggested how to rewrite the question in order to get an answer -- but you apparently are not willing to do so.

It is extremely unlikely that anyone would spend their career developing such products and then simply give away the formula so that everyone else can take their business, and their own children go hungry. People don't do that; instead they patent a product or retain its formulation as a trade secret.

You need to license a formula rather than expect it for free -- but you certainly can read books about thinner formulations and search through expired patents and see if you find suitable info there. Sorry!

Good luck.

You will find that there are a great number of paint formulations, each will have a thinner that is appropriate for that specific paint. Read the can for the recommended thinner. If they only recommend a thinner by product name, they want to sell their material and not have people use generic mixtures that they cannot control.

I would be very much interested in studying of NC Lacquer I have obtained many formulas for preparing of NC lacquer but still not found success. Every time I got complaints that my product is not suitable for all kinds of coatings I would be highly appreciated if you could give the best and accurate formula of making NC lacquer.

Thank you very much , Yours truly,

Hoang, like Mohammed, you say you've tried many formulas without success, but you don't describe them and say in what way they are deficient. Besides the fact that people consider their formulations trade secrets, odds are that if someone took their time to offer a formula here, your reply would be that you already tried it and it didn't work. People aren't going to do that. Tell us about your formulas and what was deficient, please, and someone will probably help. Good luck!

C'mon folks, this topic has gotten really silly now. There is no point in repeating what's already been said three times on this letter as each reader ignores it and just posts the same question again & again.

Endlessly posting the same silly request for "a better NC thinner formula than the one I have in mind but which I'm not going to share with you" is just foolishness.

HI, I'm totally new here. I wanted to start this business in my hometown but I need people who has got more experience to guide me. As I heard from my friend.

Thinner came in barrel and they mix it before they fill it in small Can and distribute. That's what I wanted to do.

Where should I start?

Thank you

Hi, Prashant. This thread was posted 5 years ago now. I explained then why it will never be answered until you reword the question by explaining what formulas you've tried, what books or expired patents you got them from, and what specific problems you have with the formulations. This thread has been read by, and left unanswered by, about 50,000 readers, yet people just keep posting the same question.

Get a copy of an expired patent, try it, then tell us the formulation and in what way it did not do what you wanted it to do. Thanks!

I would like to start a NC thinner manufacturing company in India. So please advise me from where I will get the technical support or license for manufacturing NC Thinner.
Otherwise give me the details of some reference book on this.
