Abstract: A formulation of thinners for waterborne automotive paints with low volatile organic compound levels, that include components able to be diluted in water, including a composition of a benzene derivative; a combination of two alcohols of a methyl alcohol and an isopropyl alcohol; an ester; osmotized water; and a ketone, where the benzene derivative is a toluene, a xylene, or a mixture of both; and wherein the composition is formed by the following compounds (in weight): Toluene/xylene from 1% to 9.5%; Isopropyl Alcohol from 30% to 45%; Methyl Alcohol from 1.5% to 12%; Methyl Acetate from 0.4% to 3%; Dimethyl Ketone from 0.78% to 6.3%; and Water from 30% to 66%, with the thinner compound mixed with waterborne paint having a low roughness, an improved gloss and particle size distribution (PSD) and a drying time between ½ and ¼ of the drying time without this thinner.
