As White Spirits aren't readily available where I live, the local art store has recomended I use Pure/Distilled Turps instead.
Firstly, what are the main differences between Mineral and Pure/Distilled Turpentine?
Secondly, can pure turps be used for applying chalk pastels instead of white spirit?
Thridly (and lastly), will the pure turps mess up my paint finish? I use Humrol enamels.

Maybe the difference in the grade/quality, not sure though. I normally use Mineral Turps for everything
