    Default Where to purchase mineral spirit

    Does anybody know where I can purchase mineral spirit?

    Need some to remove lots and lots of road tar off my car after a long distance trip. Tried clay barring the affected areas for 2 hours last night, and a good portion of them are still on the car. Stupid industrial fallout

    Pretty much any hardware / superstore would have it. Stop by your local crappytire. Mineral spirits is basicly a cheap paint thinner and all purpose household cleaner.

    Tried WD40 yet? That's a super harmless yet potent cleaner...

    Try sure-wipe if you don't mind removing your wax.
