		It is also called turpentine substitute, as it is a widely available and cheaper substitute for turpentine.
		It is commonly used as an organic solvent in painting and decorating, for thinning oil based paint and cleaning brushes.

	Extraction Technique: The Full Turps Cure
		Turpentine substitutes containing xylene and other solvents with added turpenes are considered the equivalent of Placebo’s “turps.” The poster acknowledges the contributions of numerous bees who have noted that soaks in mineral spirits, xylene or toluene also work; SWIG’s experience confirms this.
		That said, be advised that the "turps cure" involves a soak in a turpentine substitute consisting of aromatic non-polar solvents and turpenes.
		The fact that gum spirits of turpentine fail to remove povidone tends to inidcate that turpenes themselves are not the active agent in dissovling povidone.

		As someone who is quite sensitive (perhaps even allergic) to organic solvents and who is not satisfied with water-soluble oils (particularly the whites, not ground in linseed oil), I have a keen interest in safe, effective substitutes for turpentine.
		I have spoken with their salesman and chemist to confirm that Safe Klean may indeed be substituted on a 1:1 basis for turpentine.
