Mix it with white spirit for a a wood and metal polish, you can had dies to get a different shade.

Mix it with teak oil, warm or cold for a metal polish.

Mix it with metal dust and you have a small metal filler.

Metal filler ??? like wood filler ??

I use pure/gum turpentine for making mine. Not the cheapest option, but it has a beautiful smell, & is as pure/natural a solvent as you can get.

It is anywhere. I ordered a 5 litre can ages ago. First one was tainted. Replacement can they sent was better. Not perfect, but better. If you buy it in the small bottles, it works out horrendously expensive.
