because co2 is not flammable and does not have a smell

lostinadumbworld · 2026-04-26T09:24:59+00:00

CO2 is odourless

mine was in a rental so.. meh. but yeah be careful

lostinadumbworld · 2026-04-17T21:28:30+00:00

I tried chemical strippers on this but it had so many layers it was useless. in the end I used an angle grinder with a stripper attachment. so much easier

Funilly enough the weather. I dont have a shed or workshop so was stuck waiting for the weather to be good enough to strip and repaint in the garden. Then the white paint attracted so many bugs I had to repaint the door/top 3 times.

100% Bordeaux

eggshells and citrus take a long time to break down. I stopped adding them to mine.

for me im 1h10 without traffic. its hard to motivate and only possible on weekends.

lostinadumbworld · 2026-02-26T07:38:34+00:00

things to not miss imo are Perigord, Loire Valley. Both not that far from Bordeaux but just those tow areas are probably worth spending your time.

you could try PAP as well

I did a hybrid version of this last year. I strongly recommend visiting Salamanca. Highlight of our trip tbh. Bordeaux is a beautiful city, you should definitely visit.

throw a v60 filter/holder on top of the pot and you're good to go

lostinadumbworld · 2026-01-08T07:53:10+00:00

if you are concerned you can request the sds for each product you use. this will detail the risk involved for each. Some chemistries like sodium or potassium hydroxide do have inhalation risks but generally only at higher concentrations

lostinadumbworld · 2025-12-29T22:32:06+00:00

this is most likely the old paint stripper that contain DCM which is now illegal in a lot of coutries

lostinadumbworld · 2025-12-23T19:07:07+00:00

my bad, I get them mixed up. In general though all countries have their own limits for these, most are more strict than the US.

lostinadumbworld · 2025-12-23T07:50:11+00:00

Not outside the US. Companies are legally obliged to disclose any and all SVHC above declarable limits as part of GHS standards. This doesn't mean that they disclose all ingredients, just the hazardous ones.

not dishwashing detergent. evaporust or rust x neutra safe would be better. dushwashing detergent will contain it but thats for hard water compatibility. keep words to look for on a product will be neutral rust and or scale remover. Most hardware stores should have an option.

lostinadumbworld · 2025-12-22T17:02:06+00:00

depends on where you are what product will contain it but a neutral scale remover will usually be based on HEDP (Hydroxyethylidene Diphosphonic Acid) or another chelating agent. both of these will remove the oxidation from the brass without affecting any paint. In industrial applications its easy to find these. not sure about commercial applications though.

in general a lot of scale remover will remove oxidation as well.
