Turpentine
“Turpentine is gotten by hacking or lashing various coniferous trees. The discharged resin is collected in covered containers to prevent it from being soiled. The raw turpentine extracted in this way is transformed into pure turpentine by means of distilling with water vapor.” – Excerpt from VIOLIN VARNISHES by Josef and Reiner Hammerl, page 61. More information about turpentine, its properties and use can be found in this book.
