A heavy-duty solvent is a must-have for any serious model shop workbench, and our 1L bottle of 99.5% Pure Acetone is the industrial-strength tool you need for tough jobs. Because it is highly volatile and incredibly powerful, it dissolves adhesives, resins, and paints far faster than standard hobby cleaners.

Common Uses on the Workbench

• Stripping Metal Miniatures: Easily dissolves stubborn primers, varnishes, and enamel paints from metal figures. Note: Do not use acetone on standard plastic (polystyrene) or resin models, as it will melt them.

• Superglue Dissolver (CA Glue): The ultimate remedy for unsticking misaligned metal parts, cleaning up messy glue joins, or safely removing superglue from your skin and tools.

• Abs Plastic Welding: Frequently used by 3D printers and model builders to chemically weld or smooth ABS plastic components, creating incredibly strong bonds or a glossy surface finish.

• Airbrush Deep Cleaning: Perfect for flushing out dried-on, stubborn enamels and lacquers that standard airbrush cleaners can't budge. Use sparingly to avoid damaging rubber O-rings.

• Degreasing Tools: Strips away heavy oils, grease, and residue from metal tools, files, and sculpting equipment.

Why Choose 99.5% Purity?

This is pure, technical-grade acetone with no added water, fragrances, or oils (unlike cosmetic nail polish removers). It evaporates almost instantly and leaves zero residue behind, ensuring a perfectly clean surface for your next step.

Important Handling Info

Acetone is a highly aggressive solvent. Always work in a well-ventilated area (ideally with a mask or near an open window) and use a respirator or gloves where appropriate. Keep it far away from open flames, and remember to test it on a scrap piece if you are unsure how a material will react.
