What is "turpentine"?
Turpentine is a strong-smelling liquid made from the sticky substance found in pine trees. It is commonly used to thin oil-based paints and varnishes or to clean paintbrushes and tools. Turpentine helps paint flow more smoothly and evaporates quickly, making it useful in various painting and cleaning tasks. It is also used in some industrial and chemical settings, such as perfume production.
