Grumtine! Anyone know how to use it properly?
Recently I bought Grumtine for the first time.
I've never been in an art class before, I'm completely self taught and am sorely lacking in some basic knowledge areas. So when I was browsing and saw that such a thing could clean brushes I instantly grabbed it.
As I go to clean my brushes after painting today I decide to use the Grumtine. I poured a little in a plastic cup and mixed some water in with it so I could have more volume in the solution to wash my brushes.
I leave it for about 10 minutes or so as I was distracted to the phone only to come back to a disintegrated cup laying on the floor with the solution all over the floor!
And Now I'm afraid to use it again. All I can think is that I bought some sort of acid that will ruin my house, supplies, and maybe my exposed skin as well.
I've googled for information but all I can find is that it's a paint thinner and acts as substitute to turpentine for cleaning brushes. Although I didn't use it for thinner this time around I'm not to fond of the idea now...
Anyone know how to use this properly?
Any advice is welcome!
