Anonomous UK source for toluene?

[ohayoco]

Hello,

Does anyone know of a good UK source for toluene? My friend would like to buy it from a shop rather than online to protect his identity.

So far, this shop and product is the only one he's found (bit pricey at £20 a litre too):

Ormoline Metallic Paint Thinners 1 litre

Does anyone know if it's clean please? And if it's suitable for pulling 'jungle spice'? Thanks

Check out 'dunlop' or 'Alpha'(new name for dunlop) t559 or t560 thinners - couldn't fine a price for it but a company called SBA sell it along with a few others. Swim knows a place to get Xylene at around £12-15 for 5 litre if that's any more use to you?

Yes please, he'd be happy to hear about xylene if he can't get toluene from a shop. It's more the keeping his anonymity by not buying online that he's concerned with. He heard Xylene was really stinky which is why he'd prefer toluene, but beggars can't be choosers

I think I read toluene was the less smelly one somewhere on this site but could be mistaken... I expect they're both pretty stinky...

My foaf's water/lye/hostilis potion has been sitting in a china mixing bowl for 2 weeks now (pulled with Bartoline then Swan), bit concerned about it eating away at the bowl's glazing while it sits there waiting for jungle spice pulling :/
