Leftover acrylic thinners should never be poured down the drain

disposed of outdoors

or discarded with household waste.

Acrylic thinners are volatile compounds that endanger both environmental safety and community health.

The safest way to dispose of them is through a local hazardous waste collection program

Numerous municipalities provide fixed disposal sites or periodic pickup events for toxic home substances.

Contact your city’s environmental services department to locate approved disposal times and venues.

If your remaining quantity is negligible

you can let it evaporate in a well ventilated area away from any ignition sources

Pour the thinner into a shallow metal or glass container

and leave it uncovered in a secure outdoor space, such as a garage or patio

where children and pets cannot reach it.

Once the liquid has fully evaporated and only dry residue remains

the container may then be placed in your normal recycling or trash bin.

Protect your skin with protective gloves and ensure ample airflow during use.

Never mix acrylic thinners with other chemicals like paint strippers or solvents

because it may trigger toxic fumes or explosive interactions.

Keep all containers tightly sealed and labeled clearly with their contents

Keep containers in a cool, shaded location, far from radiators, stoves, or heaters.

If you are unsure about your options

reach out to your regional hazardous waste coordinator.
