Default Thin rubbing compound?

I got a very old can of Turtle Wax rubbing compound.

Re-painted some scratches on the car. Need to use rubbing compound to
clean up overspray, etc.

Rubbing compound looks too thick (it's like paste wax) for buffer on
cordless drill.

Can I thin it? With what??

Thx,

Add a little water. I would not use it on a car finish. See if a rag
dampened with kerosene will take it off before trying anything
abrasive--it could save you a lot of grief.
