Hi Gregg, Thanks for the response. I am really curious where people are getting the chemicals like KOH and sulphuric acid, so hopefully so of the seasoned veterans will shed some light there. I understand that lye works well, though I am interested in testing KOH as an alternative, since some folks seem to swear by it. I am also hoping to get into the acid-base method down the road, but that is still some time into the future.

Unless they have changed policies, if you are an individual & not a business, you could only buy non-chemical items from them if you open an account.
