Answer:

White spirits (used in lighter fluid), turpentine and Kerosene can cope with fat/oil stains, tar/asphalt and some adhesives. Many pre-wash spot treatments contain solvents. Mild Acids - such as white vinegar, cream of tartar or lemon juice help remove rust and some food stains.

Hope This Helps This Is All I Know!!
