There is limited products available in stores and this has already been mixed. I'm trying to determine if I need to throw it away. I really would like to avoid that if possible.
You have seemed determined to try convince me that these two products are too toxic. Can we please just move past...
Thank you for your input even though it is getting a little too technical for me :)
It all seemed to mix together until a few drops of eucalyptus oil were added. After I added the oil, I noticed it had separated into two layers which seems to be similar to the ratio of water to methylated...
Very good post and I completely understand where you're coming from.
I also understand that the agencies are offering very generic information that doesn't necessarily have each individuals best interests in mind (rather the population as a whole). They factor in the economy, health etc and...
I'm not sure if you read my previous message, so i'll try again. There is no methanol in the product I am using.
In case that seems unbelievable, the government document I linked states:
Well I have practically no education in Chemistry and thought someone in this forum could explain it to me...
That's a bizarre response and I'm not 100% sure what you're getting at. I sense sarcasm, so I'll respond as such...
You're probably right. I will be the first person to die from this product being on my skin despite the fact some homeless people drink it and survive for many years... Methylated...
From memory, he does mention that the alcohol needs to make contact with the virus to kill it. He is not talking about hand sanitiser specifically. I think it's common sense that hand sanitiser is 100% foolproof.
Who has made that assumption? The general consensus in Australia is that washing...
I don't think methanol is used in Australia (the name methylated spirits is probably outdated). The product I have definitely doesn't contain methanol. Given the recommended uses for the product I have, the lack of any safety warnings (other than do no drink) and that I'll only be applying it to...
I have put about 0.1mL of eucalyptus oil in 1L of product. It's simply for the smell. I don't think this will be dangerous. Eucalyptus oil is commonly used as a decongestant, cleaning product, additive when doing laundry etc etc. I think you're more likely to absorb a higher dose through other...
Hi Jedishrfu,
Thanks for your reply and sorry for breaking the rules regarding posting a recipe without citing a source.
The recipe of water and methylated spirits is a common hand sanitiser recipe getting mentioned in our media here in Australia, so I didn't even consider citing a source...
Hi guys, sorry for the uneducated question I'm about to ask.
Hand sanitiser is impossible to come by in my city with everything that's going on and i require some for my workplace. My understanding is the active ingredient is essentially alcohol, so i have decided to try make some sanitiser...
