Stupid question, I know. But Waxoyl recommends thining with white spirits. And I can't seem to find the translation in any of my books. I'd hate to use the wrong thing and damage the paint. Thanks in

Yes, Standard hardware store $1.99 paint thinner would also work and not hurt the paint. I use it as bug/tar remover on all my cars. Ray Easterby 72BGT 88Xj40

You're right. As it turned out, I didn't need to thin the stuff with mineral (I mean, white) spirits. I poured a pot of boiling water into a bucket and put the can in it. That thinned it out plenty.

Err, on the back of my can of Waxoyl it says "Place the can in a container of hot water for at least 30 mins prior to use". Andy
