If xylene is recycled properly and has no alcohol residues, i should not pose any problems. It will clear just like the original pure xylene, at least that is what I found with my recycled xylene for more than 10 years. The problem you describe should have a different cause. René J. From:

If you are using a good cracking recycling instrument the recycled xylene = 100% xylene and there cannot be any differences in behavior against pure-unused-mew xylene. That is what I always found for more than 15 years. René J. From: Marshall, Kimberly K kkmarsh...@anthc.org To:
