Wayne;

Thanks for the great info on the subject, I agree with everything you said 100%, that's why I had to run out to the workshop for my can of thinner for the ingredients. They were as follows; Toluene-ketones-methanol-petroleum distillates. I seem to remember 5 or 6 years ago when we started using this stuff that I either called or wrote to the company for the percentages of each ingredient. And as my poor memory goes it was something like 90 something % toluene and 5% or less of all the others combined. I could be wrong on this but I do not think these numbers are far off.

The brand we use is sold at Auto Zone under the company name of Klene Strip as Virgin Lacquer Thinner,it goes for around $3.75 per gallon.

I agree with you on the methanol use. It is very corrosive,just ask any dirt track racer. That is what the upper class cars run on. They have to use carbs designed or modified for that fuel and all stainless steel fuel lines and they drain the entire fuel system after a nites racing and leave it dry until the next time. It's quite a hassle to me to run this fuel and we only use the thinner because the amount of methanol in it is so little that it will not hurt our carb of fuel system.

Thanks for the expert info;
