    Yep, Naptha is Shellite.

    Personally I prefer to use Gum Turpentine as it is a natural product sourced from trees ( by product of rosin exctraction)
    It wont leave any nasty petro chems behind and it smells sooooo much nicer

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
