When I was a boy, white spirit was called "Turpentine substitute", although they are now technically different; white spirit is a turpentine substitute, but not all turpentine substitutes are white spirit.
White spirit is more volatile, so it should leave less residue to interfere with the bonding of your wax to the steel.
I have white spirit or pure turpentine. Which of the two would be better at stripping factory lube?
