Sorry no known brand, in Switzerland quite difficult to receive it, must say why you need it or have a doctor paper.

I just know that it removes stains on dresses quite well, may be less attacking the fibers on dress then acetone.

Why it is sold in Pharmacy, dunno as well !

In Uk we used to be able to buy small bottles Tetrachloroethylene.
It was sold as dry cleaning fluid.
Yeah ok, I know it's a liquid but it evaporates fast.


It is also used in the motor industry as a degreasant
It is non-inflammable

But aint nothing like acetone tho to my thinking.

not the same at all

Acetone is the organic compound with the formula OC(CH3)2.

Trychloroethylene C2H3Cl3 or CH3CCl3

^ ^
Yep, it is a bit nasty.
Skin contact for even short times will give you skin problems and inhaling the fumes will make you ill and prolonged exposure will fuck up your liver and kidneys

Carbon Tetrachloride was like that

and if you had been drinking, the effect was multiplied, esp wrt the liver

they used to use it for cleaning wax pencil off film, where I worked

lovely, maybe best to avoid. Now I remember why it sounds familiar, I had it before and got burned.

Acetone, easy peasy. The missus buys it 250ml at a time in the pharmacy for removing her nail polish. Pharmacy in question is in the basement of Zeer Rangsit, but I'm sure it's available everywhere.
