Kind of what I was thinking, but I've heard a lot of a wicked grudge against the U.S from them. Most of what I heard is immensely ridiculous, but some still manages to make sense.

I still have no idea why UK hates U.S it's all petty childish nonsense to me.
If they do even hate the U.S that is, but like I said all I can see is hate.

We dont hate you, we just just dont like how you sometimes act like we are your little brother, when you originally spawned from us!

Also the whole dragging us into your war thing, fuck that
Saying that im aiming to move to BC in a few years time...im sick of this c.u.n.try

What are you guys doing with isoproyl anyway?
Making THC oil?

Cancer cure ive heard...

Sympathise with you on this one UK chem hunters, seems to be a lot harder to obtain appropriate alcohols for extraction over here. The same old anti-terror, war on drugs excuses for stripping them from the shelves.

I have found isopropyl at 'Maplins' of all places. Servisol IPA170, available pressurised in a spray or in a larger 1ltr pourable liquid can.

Not sure of the purity, and I haven't used it for any extractions, but I have used it on other things tasks such as switch cleaning and it leaves no residue. Might be worth a shot, would be interested to find out how you get on.

Ummmmm, didn't realize or notice that the Uk hated the US!

All possibly international existing shit aside, Ethanol is available as 190 proof ethanol, or distillable from lower concentrations. Check your local liquor, or scientific supply store.

99% ISO here is available as an industrial cleaning solvent, as well as drug suppliers. Check Fryes as well as Safeway and Costco.

Methanol is available as a solvent or as a denaturing agent for ethanol. All forms are good, if used properly!

Just be smarter than the proscribers!!!!!!!!1

Really dude? Iso is rubbing alcohol, you really can't find rubbing alcohol in some random drug store? What about Wal-Mart you have one of those?

Just to be clear rubbing alcohol is NOT the same. Rubbing alcohol has an oil called lanolin added so it does not dry your skin out so unless you want to smoke lanolin I would never use rubbing alcohol.

Good point! They sometimes do add other ingredients to 70% rubbing alcohol, so as to not burn or dessicate the skin.

The 30% water is also a big problem, as it extracts all the evil tasting water solubles, that are tough and labor intensive to remove later.

99% ISO would be my choice if 95% Ethanol were not available. They both produce delicious extracts, if you use quick wash techniques.

Butane also produces some tasty extracts, if concentrated alcohol isn't available. I do both, and both have their devoted following.

as long as oil is traded in dollars round the world and the US keeps borrowing money based on those dollars they will be hated. but...... whenever england is in the shit who you gonnna call........................ The US. i personally love americans most of them anyway. the ones ive met can come across fake. but just like every1 all over the world we are all pretty much the same in my eyes

Iso is 99% pure alcohol and rubbing alcohol is 79% I believe it's either in your pharmacy you can ask or in the electronics store for cleaning electronics.. peace out Headband707
