Hi,
I bought an oil-based paint and the cleaning directions called for the use of mineral spirt.
In the store they sold me mineral terpentine.
I already had at home a cleaner labeled synthetic spirt, which did a lousy job cleaning the brush. It mostly smeared the paint rather than remove it.
Afterwards, using mineral terpentine did a great job at cleaning the brush.
My question is: What is the difference between the three products and what is each one good for.
Thanks
