Awe-d-o-file and others;
I just got off the phone with Pierre Sprey - Head Chief at Mapleshade.
First; I can hardly believe he called me after I sent him a email this morning about a $35 product I purchased 10 years ago - That my friends is customer service!
Secondly; What a education. I didn't expect we would be having a half hour discussion ranging from fighter jets to tubes to wire to time domain reflecometers. Say what you will about his audio beliefs - The man is a genius on many subjects.
Here's the skinny. Pierre instructed me to add Coleman lantern fuel one drop at a time until the consistency is restored. I just happen to have some.

Naphtha is correct.
Ronson lighter fluid contains naphtha as well.......
Ronson was bought out by Zippo a few years back and from what I've been able to gather Naphtha is no longer used in Ronson brand.
I did as Pierre instructed and everything has been restored as far as I can tell.

...it's a common "fast" paint thinner and should be avail just about anywhere that sells oil based paints inc the ubiquitous big boxes. When purchased in this form it should be less expensive than camp stove fuel or lighter fluid and it won't have perfumes or other additives. Quarts are usually the smallest qty avail but it's a good all round solvent and has a very long shelf life.
