[Histonet] Xylene/Paint Thinner
If you look on the paint thinner isle at your local Lowe's. You will find Xylene on the shelf. The first time I saw it was a shock. Wonder if the home improvement weekend warriors know what they are getting all over their hands? Lisa White, HT(ASCP) Supervisory HT James H.

I have to admit, I don't mind the smell:) But I also like the smell of gasoline, and I know both are bad for me! Thanks again to everyone who has offered feedback on this topic. Rene, I have printed out a few of the articles you've written and am anxious to research these methods more. Thanks a bunch!

I have a colleague who is convinced paint thinner is exactly the same as the SubX we use. Does anyone know if this is true? Haha- funny you should say that. I always swore that Mitaban (for canine demodex mange) was made out of xylene. Almost looks like watered down xylene. Well I checked the MSDS and it is but only the inactive ingredient part at a high %. On a lighter note that orange fragrance d-limonene flea dip is basically the same stuff as the Americlear is.
