It's a thinner for shellac. Just ask for methyl hydrate in the paint department. <br /><br />David Massehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09346419242154545286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-48811120844033089852013-01-27T22:18:20.289-05:002013-01-27T22:18:20.289-05:00So David, I also received a little gift from Bobsk...So David, I also received a little gift from Bobskoot - looks like there's going to be a cook off!

It's also good (too good maybe) for dealing with a child with a high fever (topical application sparingly, not for ingestion obviously).
