VM& P Naphtha is the short form of the compound Pure Varnish Maker and Painters Naphtha. It has different trade names such as the Painters Naphtha, Petroleum Ether, Refined Solvent Naphtha, and Petroleum Spirit. It is an aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent mixture distilled from petroleum.Its characteristics are similar to Mineral Spirits, although it is more volatile and dries faster. It has a nice sweet odor and is suitable for most solvent-based finishes, making it a popular choice for long-term applications. It operates similarly to lighter fluid and is an excellent solvent for removing sticky or label residue. Because of its low flash point, VM&P Naphtha is very flammable at room temperature.Â
