Solvent-based paints contain organic compounds as solvents. The organic compounds ensure a hard and durable finish that resists scratches and abrasions on your wall. Solvent-based coatings are too thick and you need mineral spirits or turpentine to clean and thin the paint. The thicker nature of it also tends to hide the imperfections on your wall but also demands a persistent dry time.
They are more efficient when used during freezing temperatures, and other climatic conditions as it has high resistance to extreme weather conditions.
Solvent based paint is more advantageous compared to water based paint as it has:
A superior quality enamel based on modified alkyd containing titanium dioxide and other high-grade color-fast pigments to provide a tough, durable and hardwearing semi-gloss finish.
A general purpose alkyd based primer loaded with non-toxic and anticorrosive pigments for the protection of steel surfaces against moderate corrosive environments.
A general purpose alkyd based red oxide primer loaded with non-toxic and anticorrosive pigments for the protection of steel surfaces against moderate corrosive environments.
