Ron Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 In order to remove paint from our skin, why do we use turpentine? Why doesn't water remove the paint? I guess it has got something to do with miscibility/immiscibility of liquids but I don't know the exact reason. Thanks, Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Skeptic Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Yes, turpentine for oil-based paints, water for water-based. Though to remove from your skin should be very easy, try removing it from the brush using the wrong solvent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
