Crown - Acetone

Acetone

Dissolves dried paint, cleans brushes, and preps surfaces fast

Acetone cuts through stubborn residue that soap and water won't touch. This pure solvent dissolves dried acrylic paint from brushes, removes adhesive residue from surfaces, and cleans palette knives between color mixes. It evaporates quickly without leaving film or streaks, making it effective for preparing surfaces before painting or removing unwanted marks from non-porous materials.

Crown Acetone works particularly well for cleaning synthetic brushes that have hardened with acrylic buildup, soak the bristles briefly, then work the softened paint free. It also removes uncured resin from tools and dissolves wax for encaustic cleanup. The fast evaporation rate means less waiting between cleaning and returning to work.

Use acetone in well-ventilated spaces and avoid prolonged skin contact. Keep it away from oil paintings and varnished surfaces, as it can damage finishes. Store in its original container with the cap tightly sealed to prevent evaporation. For studio cleaning tasks that demand genuine solvent power rather than gentler alternatives, acetone delivers reliable performance without unnecessary additives.
