Napthalene available at Home Depot ( basically the Zippo fluid mentioned earlier). Xylene and Acetone I found didn't touch it. Thus brake cleaner wouldn't work either.

The Coleman fuel would probably work too.

In fact, I like thinning it with the Napthalene to apply it to cases.

Me too. I order 92% OR BETTER from my druggist.

++92% available at Walmart (or was before the whole Wuhan virus thing). I keep mine in a janitorial type spray bottle, and use it for cleaning in a LOT of my reloading dies and components. I tried the isopropyl Heet automotive deicer which is 100% alcohol, but it started melting the plastic trigger on my pump sprayer. 92% = good, 100% = bad.
