Distilled mineral spirits.

Mineral spirits come two ways...cheaper/stinkier and more
expensive/less stinky

If you cannot find distilled mineral spirits, look for odorless
mineral spirits; stoddard solvent, or something like that...or just
ask.

Turpentine might work, but I can't stand the smell....and I don't know
if some of the aromatics would goof up the Epithane.
