    My mother went to tescos and she bought turps/white spirit instead, this is useless for stoves? It's more or less naphtha, maybe I can use it in my zippo.

    Any uses for this, it cost £3, I'm not wasting it.

    It's great for washing your brushes after you've painted the window frames or skirting boards.

    Besides that, maybe I can somehow use it in a stove, as it's stays alight for ages, and is very hard to put out.
