Hold on, Zeke. What you describe is the old wide-cut JET B/JP-4. The highly volatile stuff that isn't hardly available anymore.

JET A/JET A1
  • Kerosene 100%
  • Napthalene 0.04%

JET B/JP-4
  • Kerosene 35-65%
  • Napthalene 35-65%
  • Benzene 0.1-0.4%
The two fuels are vastly different. Any anti-icing properties found in the wide-cut are no longer relevant, as it can't hardly be purchased.
