There are several types of turpentine. Rectified turpentine is, arguably, a bit of a misnomer when it comes to 'true' turpentine. While regular or distilled turpentine is the sap from a tree (normally pine) tapped in a similar manner to maple syrup, rectified turpentine goes through an entirely different process. Rectified turpentine is made by literally mashing up trunk, limbs and leaves of a tree, then steaming out the spirits. Because of this, rectified turpentine has water, and therefore excess oxygen which can cause undesirable drying patterns in projects or art.
