Low-aromatic turps that thins oil-based paint and cleans brushes without wrecking the bristles.

This is a 1 litre bottle of low aromatic mineral turps for thinning oil-based paint and enamel and cleaning the brushes after, without the strong smell of the standard stuff.

It also lifts old wax and polish off timber, and you can mix it 50:50 with linseed oil for an oil finish. The 1 litre suits the odd small job so it's not sitting half used in the shed for years, and it's for oil-based paint only, because water-based paint just washes up with water.

It's flammable, so it can't go in the post. Order online and pick it up from the shop, or we can bring it out on the ute around Strathalbyn for $5 and on the regional run for $10 on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

If you're doing the 50:50 with linseed, the Diggers raw linseed oil is the one to mix it with, and a decent brush makes the job easier.
