Thinnes type 1?

About to use some International Woodskin & it mentions using Thinners No 1. Is this the same as White Spirit?

That's what I'm using. Just put a second coat on some locker lids and the white spirits keeps the brush nice and clean. I seem to remember that International always called white spirits Thinners Nr 1.
 
I am not sure they are exactly the same, worth checking, it may be alright with the product you are using, but I definitely noticed that white spirit gave poor results when used to thin varnish, or to clean brush stat would be used again with varnish.

No 1 thinners was fine.
 
Dave, I presume you mean using No 1 Thinners (white spirit) to wipe down and degrease before applying unthinned woodskin as per the product datasheet instructions? I've been using a lot of woodskin lately and white spirit is fine for the prepping. :encouragement:

Yes, that's exactly what I want it for. Just wanted to make sure before I start
