Place and secure the lid on the lacquer thinner. Always store lacquer thinner in its original can. Do not pour any lacquer thinner you have dipped a brush or rag into back into the main supply. It is now contaminated.
Wipe any drips off the can, using a rag moistened in warm water. Wash the rag with soapy water before allowing it to air dry. Rags saturated with lacquer thinner present a fire hazard as they dry.
Store the can in a cool, dry place that remains between 32 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit at all times. Place the can far from any source of heat, flame, spark or the reach of inquisitive children.
