List of commonly available chemicals

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_commonly_available_chemicals

You should start a large Wiki page with local sources for chemicals. A link to this wikipedia page is a great start. :slight_smile:

MG Chemicals 99% pure isopropyl alchohol can be found at Fry’s. While you can probably mail order it much cheaper, Fry’s is open until 9pm weekdays.

I can usually find 99% in Krogers or CVS for half the price…

This is a great resource, Thanks!

Oh, and I forgot. You can get 190 proof everclear in most liquor stores. This is 95% alcohol by volume of ethyl alcohol, which is a better solvent (among other things) then isopropyl…

91% (the azeotrope or constant-boiling strength), sure, but I can’t recall seeing 99%.

Yes, but… all of this stuff is in your head. This is why I suggested a wiki page.

It should also include stuff like this:

Which can be used to blend in some welds.

Got 3-4 bottles of the stuff in my medicine cabinet right now. The places I frequent usually have 70% and 99%

Don’t let Kitty Dukakis know about it…

Ah, but it is isopropyl. That stuff will kill you…

The 95% everclear is in my solvent cabinet for things like shellac…

I guess you don’t recall the time she was so desperate she drank the wrong stuff and was hospitalized.

Oh, the 1980s politics… :slight_smile:

Nope, missed that one… Try to avoid news about useless human beings (translate to politicians, celebrities, etc…)…
