Being asked "what does white spirit mean?" is like being asked "what's
grass mean?" I know the answer, but I'm not sure I can communicate it!
White spirit is a common form of paint thinner in UK. It is a clear
volatile liquid that smells funny. I have no idea what the American
term would be.
Hope this helps.
