    reading all the tips and tricks about the peroxide baths, got me wanting to try.
    all i could find was a bottle of 6%/ 20 volume. havn't tried it yet, but will be giving an old gijoe CLAW a bath soon.

    i was able to get through a friend, a 1000ml bottle of 12%/40 volume Pro-oxide. Thing is its Peroxide, yes, and water, but it also has other stuff. it has warnings up the wazzuu, about not being for consumer use and stuff, but what gets me is that its kind of thick and creamy.

    it's REDKEN Pro-oxide brand.

    does anybody know if this will still work if it's thick, white and creamy ( yeah, it looks like jizz)

    the first two ingredients are water, and hydrogen peroxide, but like i said, it has a few more ingredients.

    test it on something dispensable first. Other additives could have some interesting side effects. Post pictures if there are :) 

    Also, like Redken pro-oxide, the 12% H202 is apparently found at beauty supply stores, as it's used for bleaching hair.

    I think you can order higher concentrations of hydrogen peroxide off the internet. Your name might go on a list, but these days, whose name isn't on a list?

    I don't know about shipping to Canada but this is where I purchased my gallon: Hi-Valley Chemical / Lab Supply - Search


    Thanks to whoever the TFWer is that linked this site back in the original Transformers GD thread.

    Wow, i'd get banned if i posted the word j*zz.
    Back on topic: I agree with roboticplanet, test it on something unimportant and post pictures of the result.
