Agitene or Super agitene, made by Graymills.  Available from 
industrial supply places.  They're the same solvent, but Super 
Agitene has a lanolin moisturizer added so it's not as rough on your 
hands.  It leaves a film on parts, so they need to be cleaned with 
something before painting.  Agitene doesn't have the moisturizer, so 
no film.
