[QUOTE="John B, post: 7950, member: 207"] It's absurd that I can buy untreated strips, oxalic acid and glycerin from a supplier and it comes with instructions yet I can't buy ready-made strips from the same person. Can the powers that be in MPI not see that the chance of something going wrong are astronomically higher with people making their own concoctions compared to somebody supplying a carefully calibrated and standard product. I have no personal experience as to whether oxalic strips work or not (but I will be trying some in a few weeks). I would much rather be able to buy ready-made strips from a reputable source at least till I get a handle on how they do or don't work. Strips plus oxalic plus glycerin. What earthly difference could it make whether I mix it up or someone more competent and experienced mixes it up except that I'm more likely to make a mistake. [/QUOTE]
