<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 2253335, member: 15199"]The MSDS for #9 is that most about 90% is a mix of ethanol ( ethyl alcohol), kerosene, and oleic acid ( organic fatty acid). Amyl acetate gives the somewhat addictive brain trigger banana smell shooters seem to love, and Ammonium hydroxide 1-5% to try and balance the pH from acidic to neutral.</p><p><br /></p><p>My opinion would be a fresh bottle would be like soaking in fermented olive oil, but reaction would be minor. It would not do the job of pure acetone however, in removing organic debris/chemicals. Also the #9 components would tend to draw water out of the environment when open, whereas, acetone will remove water from the metal surface as it rapidly evaporates. Only fault for acetone, is it doesn't smell like bananas <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I would stick with 100% acetone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
