Turpentine is not a petroleum based solvent like kerosene, OMS, Stoddard Solvent, etc. It is derived from pine trees by distilling pine resin. It is also anything but "odorless" having a very strong, distinctive smell. It is a decent solvent but expensive and certainly not any less irritating or toxic than it's petroleum based competitors.
