Re: Ethanol and your brass floats
Terry:
That solvent will also work. We used it in the chemical plants for cleaning piping for chlorine and oxygen service. If you leave any oil or grease in that piping or equipment it will either burn or explode when put into service. Chlorine and oil/grease and steel is the same as an oxyacetylene torch and steel.......the steel loses. Oxygen and oil/grease will like burn very rapidly or explode.
The carb cleaner I used to use (still available today if you search) is the Berryman Carb Cleaner in the small 1 gallon containers. Potent stuff. But again, tri-chlor will also work. Trouble is finding it and then disposing of it.
