White spirit is a transparent, clear, and petroleum-derived liquid with a detectable characteristic odor. It is composed of complex hydrocarbon mixtures produced by hydro-treating petroleum cut and obtained by the distillation from naphtha and kerosene components of crude petroleum.

It is used as a solvent in paint & varnish industries due to its ability to dissolve all kinds of paints and varnishes. It is also used as a solvent for coloring ink, and cleansing any metalwork. White Spirit also acts as a raw material to manufacture polish for shoes, floors, and furniture.
