Anybody know anything about cellulose thinners.

I know you can get anti bloom, 2k, high gloss.

What I have is a tin marked "standard thinners", now to me it smells and looks like cellulose thinners,in fact thats what I thought it was,I use it to thin paint, clean guns and various other jobs.

However someone told me today its not cellulose thinners, so any idea what is, and what I have.

Im a bit confused. Ta

Sounds like standard celly thninners used for primer, dust coats and first coats before final coat with high gloss. Standard because it's not anti bloom or high gloss. blabla

If it isn't labelled 2K or synthetic or anything else it is almost certainly cellulose
