I've been using Tannery for years, precisely because it doesn't take 
anything but normal mineral spirits to remove for painting new black 
wrinkle.  Contents of the can appear to be isoparaffinic  hydrocarbon 
solvent 64742-48-9 and white mineral oil 8042-47-5...MSDS numbers, I'm 
assuming.  Haven't tried the CLP - will have to evaluate that sometime.

Best wishes for a joyful Christmas,
Mike  KC4TOS

Use off teflon or silicone products may make future repaint projects trouble some unless very through solevent cleaning prep work is done. I have had luck cleaning with citrus based furniture cleaners.
