HMG Thinner 2691 is a solvent-based thinner designed for use with recommended HMG coating systems. It is used to adjust the viscosity of compatible paints and coatings for easier application and to help achieve the correct finish, where HMG specifies Thinner 2691 in the relevant product datasheet. HMG lists the product code as TNR2691 and describes it as “for use in recommended HMG systems.”
It is commonly associated with compatible HMG products such as Epilife 2, Nisocoat HS, Stoving Enamel, Epiprime, and Epoxy Primer EP2. Bailey Paints also lists it as suitable for Chromate Free Etch Primer and Epiprime EP2, and identifies it as a solvent-based thinner.
Key details: flashpoint 24°C, store between 5°C and 25°C, keep cans sealed when not in use, and use within 12 months from delivery when kept in original sealed containers. Always refer to the SDS, product datasheet, and tin label before use.
Safety note: the safety data sheet identifies Thinner 2691 as for professional use only and for surface coating / thinner / cleaner / diluent applications; it is not intended, labelled, or packaged for consumer use. It is classified as a flammable liquid and vapour and may be harmful if inhaled, so suitable ventilation, respiratory protection where required, eye protection, gloves, and standard solvent-handling precautions should be used.
