I don't know that you ever will, just that with the VM&P, you won't. Your 
regular ol' naphtha may not be the same as someone else's regular ol' 
naphtha but VM&P is supposedly more narrowly defined. This may be a big 
deal about nothing, since I assume anything that silicone will mix with 
will work fine as the vehicle if the solvent evaporates out without leaving 
anything detrimental. VM&P has just been the proven solvent for a long time.
