So, Jokerette, which one of those ingredients is the linseed oil??? Please, I'm sure that there are a lot of people that want to know.
Actually, most industrial products do not list ALL the ingredients. It's not like a food product where everything has to be listed. Companies are required to report certain toxic or otherwise unsafe ingredients. The petroleum distillates are probably just the carrier for the active ingredient be it linseed oil or mystery junk #67 Heptane is a nasty fellow with all sorts of environmental and safety issues. It is used as a solvent.
