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.

I've been using turpentine in Epithane for years. Works fine.

Use mineral spirits or odoless if you want to pay double. The slight
odor s gone on drying.

Use some or all naptha for faster solvent flash off on vertical
surfaces.

Look for the cheap blue and silver cans down in the solvent
section of the paint aisle. Then read the label. It is the
same thing that I used to clean my airless when shooting
non-water soluable paint.

It comes in two labels.

1) Paint thinner (read the label, its usually mineral spirits.)
2) Mineral Spirits (for some reason usually cheaper).

Good luck,

Don W.
