I believe so. What we call mineral spirits are completely clear and void of any color.

Yes: euro "white spirits" =3D 'murican "mineral spirits" =3D Stoddard = solvent.
Of course, there are a lot of colorless paint thinners besides mineral = spirits: naphtha, acetone, toluene, xylene, mineral turps. =20

as an 'murican "white spirits" would be confusing- might mean paint thinner (mineral spirits) but might mean white gas (petrol) or even alcohol.

Hah, don't believe I've heard the term 'white spirits' since I was a kid. Probably like so many things, would depend on who was saying it what it means. As a kid i've heard moonshine referred to on occasion as 's**te spirits' - but that was by old time moonshiners, not always retired from it.
