For some future extractions an re-x I got myself some Collall thinner for rubber cement.
Reading from the forum its supposed to be heptane.
Its cheaper than bestine and more available.

The only thing I found, that it stil smells the hell out of SWIM's kitchen, what doesn't really pleases the girlfriend. So he got him self the rubbercement/fotolijm verdunner, witch is a bit more expensive and harder to come by. He uses this now for every part of the process. If you whant to evaporate some of this stuff its gone in a view minutes, and doesn't leave any nasty smells. This is where you have to be a bit carefull to make sure your kitchen is well ventilated because of obvious reasons.
I'm sure this stuff is pure Hepthane, but it smells very different than this Wasbenzine, so are you sure traveler, that this is not contaminated with nasty stuff???
So if there is anyone that whant's to get the pure Heptane, I know two shops in A'dam that sell it. So PM. me, if you want to know where.
This is what he uses
I looked for a datasheet before getting this product but havent found it so far.
Now I read the label and it says. "thinner based on boiling point petrol".
This brings me to cas-nr 64742-49-0,

I put some on a clean petri dish. I evaps quickly.
My nose is blocked but it has a bit of smell but not strong
when I put the liquid on the dish i see some small specks but in the end all seems to have evporeded.
is this normal to see this small dots (1 mm).
So it seems its realy naptha and not heptane.
I am right ??
Is this good to do defattings and pulls ?
Can I use it for re-x also ??
I just want to know to be safe.
