Thinning White Lightning?

I have a couple bottles of White Lightning that have thickened to the consistency of crystallized honey.
Does anybody know what they use for the thinner/solvent?
Has anybody recovered a bottle that has dried out? How did you do it?

Thanks for your help

I have a bottle of White Lightning Wet Ride that I dilute with oderless mineral spirits. The lube from the bottle does not really spread out on the chain well until I dilute (thin) it with the OMS.

We are sorry to hear that your bottle of White Lightning thickened! A little bit of acetone should do the trick. We recently changed the bottles for all of our lubricants to PET bottles that are not only better for the environment, but also prevent the solvent carrier from evaporating out of the bottle. So going forward, this issue will go away. If you ever have any questions, just shoot us an email at info@whitelightningco.com.
