Kerosene is more highly refined? You wouldn't think so considering how much smoke it produces.
it does produce more smoke, but it is the factors that go into making it that i would guess make it more refined....to get it to its level of combustibility...definately not an expert on the subject...just someone who has done a little personal research in the past...and who has a good number of friends in the oil industry...meh.
