I have used kerosene in the past to remove rust from tools. It is also
of course used as oil in lanterns. I used it the other day to my
surprise to clean some greasy parts up and it worked great. I got to
thinking about it and am a little puzzled, since most solvents do not
act as oils and vice versa. What exactly is kerosene, and what do you
use it for?


I used it for soaking an old carborundum stone I'd bought which was covered in
some sort of paste grease, it thouroghly cleaned it. Because of the fumes I let it
sit outside on newspaper for a week, which also worked fine.
