Zest-It : Oil Paint Dilutant and Brush Cleaner : 250ml
Zest-it Oil Paint Dilutant and Brush Cleaner is an alternative to turpentine and white spirit, has a long active strength and can be re-used many times for brush washing. More artists are looking for safer alternative solvents and for many Zest-it has become the safer studio solvent of choice.
Tips for use:
Over time the sediment of used Zest It sinks to the bottom leaving perfectly clear Zest It that is ready to be re-used. For this reason it is a great idea to have several vessels of Zest It on the go in rotation, so that the sediment in each bottle has time to sink to the bottom. You can then decanter the clean Zest it into a clean bottle to keep it as clean as possible.
Only a small amount is needed for thinning paint and it dries without leaving any residue.

Brilliant stuff. I am using it only as a brush cleaner, it works like a dream, it smells nice and of course so much better than having to put up with headache-inducing solvents ... Also, no worries about rags etc. catching fire! (Posted on 19/02/2022)Rating - Review by Feefo
First time to try zest it. Fantastic environmentally friendly alternative to turpentine or white spirits. Loved it so much ordered a 500ml bottle for better value. Pleasant citrus smell! (Posted on 02/02/2020)Rating - Review by Feefo

Best dilutant ever (Posted on 16/03/2017)Rating - Review by Feefo
Zest it is a wonderful thinner for oil paints and I use no other. I have asthma and cannot use turps plus others dislike the smell. I would not be able to paint without it! I use it for washes and thinning and all my oil painting needs. The brushes are beautifully soft and clean too. Well done Jackson's. You should promote it more.
