Terpentine (odorless) Astra Artea 150 ml – solvent for paints and varnishes

Astra Artea Odorless Turpentine, 150 ml, is a refining solvent formulated for thinning oil-based paints and varnishes and for cleaning brushes and tools after use. The odorless composition reduces typical strong solvent smells while preserving solvency for natural resins and drying oils. Packaged in a 150 ml container, it is intended for small-scale painting, restoration, model making and workshop tasks where a lower-odor solvent is preferred.

Advantages

The odorless formulation lowers volatile odor without sacrificing dissolving power for traditional oil paints, varnishes and resins. The compact 150 ml size offers convenient handling and storage for hobbyists and professionals working on limited-area projects. The solvent supports effective brush cleaning and helps achieve consistent paint viscosity for smoother application and improved finish control.

Suitable for

• Thinning oil-based paints and varnishes for hand painting or small surfaces
• Cleaning brushes, palette knives and painting tools
• Restoration work on furniture, frames and small wooden objects
• Model making, miniatures and fine-detail painting
• Workshop tasks where reduced solvent odor is required

Key specifications

• Volume: 150 ml
• Type: odorless turpentine solvent
• Compatibility: oil-based paints, natural resins and drying oils

How to use

Use Astra Artea Odorless Turpentine to adjust the viscosity of oil-based paints and varnishes by adding small amounts and mixing until the desired consistency is reached. For brush and tool cleaning, rinse repeatedly in the solvent until paint residues are removed, then wash with soap and water where applicable. Work in a well-ventilated area even though the product is odor-reduced, keep the container tightly closed when not in use and follow any safety instructions on the packaging.

Usage recommendations

For best results, start with minimal amounts when thinning paint to avoid over-dilution; allow thinned varnishes to dry on a test surface before full application. Store away from heat sources and open flame, and dispose of used solvent and cleaning residues in accordance with local regulations.
