They should.
The fumes of some paint thinners can make you pretty sick, so mind
good ventilation.
That's another reason why i use acetone, it is comparatively harmless.

One thing to watch out for is to keep your solvents clean. Some people
tend to press a rag against the opening of the solvent container to
moisten it. If the rag is greasy or otherwise dirty this can
contaminate the solvent. The obvious solution is to fit a small
diameter spout so very small quantities of solvent can be poured out
easily.
