I think that means it’s water based…. The good old standby lacquer thinner will work for alkyd enamel

Fine for what?

Will this waterborne wax and grease remover be fine for wiping down a surface that I plan on painting with Oil-Based paint?

I can’t say for sure except probably. I don’t know if BarryK still owns SPI or not but it’s a very good company with tech support. He was on a number of car forums in the past. But they do have a real tech support

Yeah, Barry was always very active in the forums also, and quick to answer questions.
I haven't logged in there for several years.
