What it is and what it does. Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether (butyl glycol) is the coupling solvent used in water-based cleaners and lacquers, where it dissolves oils and keeps the formulation clear.

  • Colourless liquid with a mild ether odour; miscible with water and with most organic solvents.
  • Extremely effective on greases and on dried lacquer films, which is why it appears in wax removers and in lacquer formulations.
  • It is a combustible liquid with a moderate flash point and it must be handled with ventilation.

Buyer Questions We Answer Every Week

QuestionAnswer
Can it be used neat on wax?It can, but it is normally blended because neat solvent is expensive and its evaporation is slow.
What are the health precautions?Use with ventilation; butyl glycol is absorbed through the skin and is a blood and kidney toxicant on repeated exposure.
