Compared to cybs max ion dmt tek, how safe is the process? I've never used most of the chemicals required. Is a gas mask necessary? The tek doesnt mention much on the dangers of the specific chemicals.
Gotcha. Thank you for the advice. So just a cheap cloth mask will do, instead of like a "breaking bad" respirator mask? Also will open windows and a fan pointed toward them be enough ventilation?Muskogee Herbman said:You should practice normal laboratory safety procedures when using lye, and especially HCl (muriatic acid).
The xylene especially smells and can give you a headache.
I would wear a mask, gloves, and goggles.
I'm a bit paranoid about proceeding now.VibeSurfer said:You definitely want a mask that can filter the air you're breathing. That xylene stuff is nasty. I don't think I'll ever do it that way again and just go with 69ron's teks instead. the hcl is dangerous and you should know how to safely handle it too. You wouldn't want an open flame anywhere near xylene/toluene vapors either.

I'll probably go this route. It blows because I've bought all the chemicals for Kashs tek already. Haha. The xylene wasn't cheap.Wolfnippletip said:69 Ron's Tek is easier and doesn't involve xylene. I usually extract from reduced tea using a modification of Ron's tek with Lye, D-Limonene and Vinegar. It's easy and results in full spectrum mescaline acetate. Not pure mescaline, but it will cap up and hits hard. The D-Limo is a joy to work with. Spill some? Cool! Wipe the counter down with it.![]()
You're right. And I literally just found my N95 mask. Thank you for the words of encouragement. Currently studying through the tek now.Wolfnippletip said:If you've already bought the equipment then you just need a mask, proper ventilation and to be careful. There's Nexians here like Muskogee who will help you through it.
You got this, either way.
Any idea as to how long the vapors from these chemicals will linger in the house? I plan to utilize fans and open windows for ventilation.Muskogee Herbman said:Just be safe and its not a problem. I've done this extraction dozens of times never had an issue. Up to you what tek to do and what you're comfortable with. Kash is my go to for this.
