    Is that the one that can be used as white gas/fuel Alby?

    @MG ..Yes, I've ordered some too!:thumbup:

    Do a search on here for 'Holts' and lower down on the 3rd thread Mr Mackburner said he used it at the Ipswich festival last year and spoke highly of it

    Thanks @Alby :thumbup:

    I could find the Holts brake cleaner here in Malaysia but only in aerosolized cans.
    Too bad they're not available in 5 or 10-litre containers here.
    Otherwise, they could be a good source of naphtha for gasoline or CF-fueled lanterns.

    Looks like this is still available, i'm running low on brake cleaner so why not buy this which can also be used for fuel, £22.84 for 10 litres inc free delivery over £15 :thumbup:

    I suppose you could even use in Zippo-styled lighters since its basically light naphtha. MSDS attached:

    It'd take me a while to use that lot in a zippo, if i still smoked of course, its certainly cheaper than the panel wipe i was buying and should last a while.
