It is pretty amazing stuff. Have you ever checked out the hydrogen peroxide therapy concept?

I used to use 30% H2O2 for digesting epoxy. That stuff was VERY reactive.

So where do you get 30% H2O2?

Sounds like an Ozone generator.

And one can use their cold fusion reactor to generate the electricity needed to make H2O2 out of Water and Air.

I wonder if they can be cascaded effciently.

Cancer is not nearly cured, I have a good friend dying of it right now.

You used to be able to get up to I think 50% or maybe 60% at beauty supply places, a lot cheaper than at chemical suppliers. I don’t think you can anymore, since the 9-11 panic.

I still have a couple of bottles of 40% from Sally Beauty Supply, don’t know if it is any good anymore, it must be 20 years old.

There was a youtube video on how to concentrate 3% up to whatever percentage you wanted without any fancy equipment

I get 35% food grade H2O2 from

https://www.blubonic.com/product-page/35-food-grade-hydrogen-peroxide

Amazon pretends to have it but only sells 12%

Use for canning and other sterilization needs.
Other cleaning uses are all over the web.

I dilute to about 1 % for my CPAP machine and humidifier. Keeps both clean and sanitized.

Oxygen is a byproduct .

Also use 4-5 drops in each ear if I feel a cold coming on. My Dr taught me that one .. works very well

Also use about.a 12% dilution for cleaning counters, sink joints and other heavy uses.

Great stuff !

Be careful though as 35% straight from bottle can burn you ..

Read the cautions

Sorry to hear that. My father-in-law just died of cancer a few years ago. What I mean is that the average cancer patient has a much better chance today than they did in 1960.

That’s a new one on me. I never would have thought of it being useful on polymer type materials, at least cured ones.

I mostly used 30-40% in a process for cleaning gold jewelery. Had to combine it with another chemical that is also now highly regulated, but it worked like magic.

I saw a guy on youtube who showed how to boil the water out of the 2% stuff. It seems to work, the water boils off faster than the h2o2 breaks down. I tried it and got to 5%. That’s already getting strong. I got some concentrate on eBay— 12.5 % and that stuff would burn your skin.

It’s good for mold.

“Also use 4-5 drops in each ear if I feel a cold coming on. My Dr taught me that one .. works very well”

Of the 30%????? That doesn’t burn your ear and possibly destroy your eardrum?

Sounds scary to me......

So where do you get 30% H2O2?

I used to be able to buy 35% which, due to the shipping weight, was the most economical means of buying it. But since Federal law apparently now requires merchants of 35% concentration hydrogen peroxide to be licensed, and hydrogen peroxide over 20% solution is part of the Items never allowed by the USPS, then it is hard to find. http://www.dfwx.com/h2o2.htm does offer it, though I am, suspicious of the legality of selling it for personal use, even though I do not like the restriction if it exists.

Correct. Too strong at 30%.

I dilute to 1 to 1-1/2% for ears.

The link I sent in comment #30 is where I just go 2 gallons of 35%.

I buy all the time. Good shipper (blubonic.com)

They ship USPS ..mine came in 2 separate boxes.

Each gallon in plastic bottle then double wrapped with strong sealed plastic. Be careful as can burn your skin at that strength. Rinse quickly if you get some on your hands.

Good luck
