After Googling the topic, I'm not at all convinced that the product is
actually available.

This topic has been discussed extensively on HistoNet in the last few
years, and you should consult the HistoSearch archives. There is at
least one alternative product.

Whatever you get, look into using a non-flammable perfluorocarbon
coolant, rather than the extremely flammable acetone or 2-methylbutane
usually in use.
