    Potassium Hydroxide???

    I've found several sources, mostly of the flake variety, and even ordered some from the source recommended by Smack.....but its been two weeks and I haven't seen it, nor will they answer emails.

    Thought this might be the right place to ask for advice.... Is Potassium Hydroxide what I should be using? Recommended source(s)? Or, should I be using something else? I appreciate any advice you can offer!

    I'm on my second generation booster. Tried the Water4Gas first, and it did increase mileage, but have since built the Smack's unit. I expected the Potassium Hydroxide to be here, but it looks like they took my money and ripped me off.

    Potassium Hydroxide is definitely the catalyst to use, I get mine from http://www.cosmeticgrade.com/, although it seems that they don't have any at the moment.

    Thanks very much! I just purchased 10lbs of Potassium Hydroxide off Ebay. I know that's a lot, but sooner or later, I expect to have a booster on all the rigs we own, and I assume it won't go bad on the shelf.
