Rinoa Super-Genius your not a genius your an idiot, acetone is toxic, costic, and lethal. It will dissolve your fingers stupid idiot

[@RinoaL]

well it isnt caustic, and it isnt toxic, and it isnt lethal, at least not any more than any other item we are exposed to every day. i suggest you read the data sheets for acetone.

[@Johnny241948]

I thought I'd come back and watch this one last time before you kill it, THANKS

[@mynameisnobody4409]

umm you're wrong, its a very clean, it doesn't pollute the atmosphere like other volatiles, you really have a big mouth don't you .

[@tatisugiarti7712]

[@lebommjohnson8101]

You'll notice the acetone simply softens the foam so that it collapses into something like chewed bubblegum. Try putting it into lacquer thinner instead, and you'll truly liquefy the foam into a clear liquid that can be used to coat porous materials to waterproof them. I call it "Styro-Kote", but I doubt that I'm the original inventor.

[@TonyStark-ze4ph]

lebomm johnson try putting it in the internet so no one steals it and make themselves the original inventer

[@terrysheehan4879]

lebomm johnson that idea has been around forever

[@democratictotalitariansoci1462]

gr8 advice . ty

[@gorillaau]

Terry Sheehan Nothing to stop someone from trademarking it the idea. Otherwise just spread the word and the context as far and wide as you can to make the term generic.

[@jthawken123]

Awesome! Does using lacquer thinner cause it to totally solidify and become rigid?

[@The1stFishBone]

I think I know how they did the dissolving floor scene in Alien.

[@Trtlman]

That actually is exactly how they did it

[@ethanchannel4225]

Use painted styrofoam and drops of acetone on the painted styrofoam

[@BlackCat_2]

Interesting to watch. I wonder if that stuff could be used to make a mold for resin casting. I am going to have to try that.

[@bufferzone3247]

You should also inform that you should wear face mask, because I work with acetone alot and the vapors you have created with this combination and really cause some damage. Cheers.

[@bufferzone3247]

And wear gloves. You really do not want that in your blood stream.

[@dylanevans5644]

Acetone exposure on a once-off basis like this is very unlikely to cause any damage, it is always best to take precautions even with this very low risk but I think its worth being aware the risk is low. There are few chemicals you can buy over the counter that are seriously dangerous from short term exposure. Working with the stuff is a different story of course and every precaution must be taken.

[@bufferzone3247]

Really. Read the back label of acetone. Better, read the label on styrine. Read the caution label on gel coat. Its all dangerous even with low exposure.

[@dylanevans5644]

I think you need to take your own advice and read those labels. An Acetone label carries a '1' for 'slight' risk to health.

[@bufferzone3247]

have. and use it everyday. whats your point.

[@nicknewman5838]

Can you make Glue that stays sticky when its dry ? looking for a homemade re positionable glue help if you can..

[@polvocorrupto]

I know a classmate from long ago who ruined his project because he decided to paint his styrofoam car using a graffiti spray can.

[@RinoaL]

Polvo Corrupto hahaha

[@democratictotalitariansoci1462]

That brings me memories. majority of glues also melt styrofoam. I remember that we also ruined many school projects while trying to glue those styrofoam sculptures to the other surfaces

since the people in this comment section are experts pls help i have in my freezer a ceramic dish with 1M HCl, acetone, h2o2. do i do something with it? i did research as much as i can but i just couldnt fucking find anything about how to make this stuff.

[@mathijsalkemade87]

+Chester123569 acetone is bad for you skin. It dries out your skin if you thouch it too much.

[@gtrjazz1]

I have just purchased a field with an old fridge lorry back in it. The styofoam out of it is 30ft long over a foot thick and five foot wide will try to melt it into smaller bits to take down the tip.

[@SnifferRiffle]

You know you are just making a crude form of napalm.

[@duMaurier15]

I was just thinking the same thing. All I can think of when seeing this was the napalm bombing in Vietnam by USA and how it would look like if it was to get it on your skin. All she would need to add is gasoline and then a fire. Cool video though.

[@WhiteLightning117]

Cyborgslayer404d Yo, I think I saw you comment on a random 'ball lightning' video about an hour ago. Weird.

[@maxmaidment96]

This isn't really napalm. If you dissolve it in petrol it would be

[@fireofdestruction7753]

+duMaurier15 actually you dont need gasoline acetone is flammable by itself so yeah crude napalm

[@chaistan]

+patrick Tighe That's noting like actual napalm tho. Napalm has oxidizers and other substances to make it burn a lot hotter than some styrofoam puddy.

[@swallowpaperairplanes7979]

You can use that for a binder for soild rocket motors.

[@noobqoou]

Hi guys, I repeated this experiment at home, look what happened!

[@obese3572]

LOL

[@krisztianszirtes5414]

Time to make a dark joke ready to be deleted. Kids in Vietnam could have eaten that napalm.

[@galamonkey]

Much more fun to melt it in gasoline, then use it as a type of sticky napalm. It will stick to anything and is hard to put out. Even dumping water on it wont do the trick.

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

For anyone wanting to do this Gasoline does the same thing but a tip is to add the liquid to the Styrofoam that way you can control how thick it is. Just add a little bit of acetone/gasoline at a time and let it dissolve and once it quits eating add a little more and so on.

[@mobmob5944]

“Fortunate son all of a sudden starts playing in the background and the trees start yelling”

[@grahambate3384]

Can use as a glue, can use petrol instead of acetone

[@zeecaptain5351]

if you use gasoline/petrol you have a cheap napalm i just made some today its real easy look up my vid on it i burned a little bit of it and it burns fairly well

[@precinct1baltimorecountyre588]

found that out all by myself

[@grahambate3384]

precinct 1 baltimore county residents good on u

[@skeetskeetskeetnigga]

Petrol will leave an oily residue in the mixture, which isn't a problem if you are going to burn it, but will be a problem if you try to use it for something else.

[@drfrog4]

I don't think it's a good idea to use napalm as glue

[@detroitos]

I always thought it was nice how you'd add this type of calming music to your videos.

[@CesarScur]

Why so many dislikes? This video is nice =D

[@DennisWDobbins]

Model glue can dissolve styrofoam as well although it takes longer than with acetone.

[@Anonarchist]

replace the acetone with diesel fuel and you've got napalm.

[@blameman3954]

+Anon archist i believe acetone makes napalm too but he waited for it to evaporate.

[@Nahnowaylmao]

+Anon archist That already is what all the casuals call "napalm". Real napalm is more like a jell that sprays and sticks to everything after impact.

[@RavenFlight413]

+Juelz J And polymer thickened gasoline is JUST THAT! Seriously, Thickened gasoline is basically napalm. There are two different types of many variations of napalm, theres WW2 and Korean war era type A and then there's Vietnam type B, Polymer mixed into gasoline is similar to type B napalm, but not evenly processed, so it's thicker, and stickier, but not as much as gel-type Vietnam napalm, same effect and similar composition so it might as well be napalm.

[@Anonarchist]

napalm-B is disel fuel with a ploystyrene as the gelling agent. like i said

[@RavenFlight413]

Anon archist Burns releasing heat over 3000 degrees Celsius, sticks to pretty much everything it touches and can burn for hours on end if a lump of it is large enough. That's type B Napalm... or as i like to call it 'Nampalm.

[@MaggieOleary-hm4nu]

Thinners and styrophome is what I've been using for a couple of years now!! I use it to waterproof my paper machee projects, I love the stuff, (But word of warning, it's highly flammable ) The acetone mix will be better as a glue, i think!! 🧚‍♀️🩷

[@among-us-99999]

I got really dry skin on my Hands just by watching this

[@threshanimations7430]

After the melted styrofoam has dried any idea if it would be safe to use with aluminium prop making, (pouring molten aluminium onto the styrofoam) ? would be really great to know thanks

[@Calipso911]

William Thresh I'd really love to know the answer to this too

[@samnoneofyourbisnus2543]

Harruh the acetone removes the air that makes Styrofoam a foam by stopping the chains of polystyrene from sticking together so yes you can use it

[@Calipso911]

But doesn't the lack of air in the Styrofoam mean that it's less likely to evaporate from the heat of molten aluminium or steel? Meaning it'll just stick there

[@samnoneofyourbisnus2543]

i guess there is only one way to find out (try it)

[@threshanimations7430]

Maybe I will have to on a small sample :)

[@ww321]

I saw a video where a guy was building prosthetic legs in a 3rd world country. To save money he started using plastic yogurt and milk cartons as the resin (melting them with lacquer thinner) and polyester as the reinforcement cloth.Using a wooden foot with tire tread on the bottom. Dropping the cost from thousands to a few dollars. Local people make them now that they know how.

[@bobcummings154]

+ww321 can we make false teeth with it

[@damonterrill9911]

ww321 that's awesome

[@Moostery]

I wonder why yours is more like a syrupy viscosity and mine is more like that of silly putty even though its been soaking in gasoline in a jar since I made it.

[@dylbob9000]

does it cure firm? it could be used to get some interesting shapes instead of calving a block for a diy aluminium foundry

[@gravity1123]

good idea

[@jrdn.lauren]

I wonder if the extra density would affect the final product in any way.

[@julioseviltwin2304]

+Lauren J. I doubt it.. think of the lost wax casting by the Egyptians millennias ago. that sh!ts dense.. best tip for a smooth finish is to dip the shape to be casted in plaster, let it drip dry, forms a smooth tough skin like drywall.. alum will be smooth as silk when set..

[@TammeyBoggs-kj5zq]

Ok what can I put it on and how long does it take to harden back up

[@askcar5058]

I'm I the only one while the first piece of being Dissolved thought it looked like the Titanic

[@moonbear1st]

in the late 60s when i used to do a lot of competition model making i used this idea and also melted sprue from kits in to acetone or liquid polystyrene cement this made the paste you have made however you had to keep liquid in the bottle and air out it was a great filler for models also great for coating rough areas and easy to sand down..

[@JimTom.]

acetone isnt that bad to touch people, just dont breathe the fumes too much.

[@justanobody1726]

thats why he did it outside, i guess

[@thecycleof]

It allows your body to absorb many chemicals quickly. It's bad to mix chemistry with acetone on your hands

[@yourface3154]

Acetone goes straight through your skin into your bloodstream.

[@tanyapicard2587]

Thank you! I was just going to mention Nail Polish Remover... Lol

[@loskop100]

I used to use different liquids on polystyrene when making brick or stone walls for movie and theatre sets. Petrol, diesel, paint thinner and acetone produce different surfaces from their different volatility and using a large paint brush to flick the fluid onto the surface works well. Hexane safe contact adhesive can be used to glue poly bricks together.

[@frostyfire3102]

I'm going to give this to my mother-in-law and say it's marshmallow fluff.

[@politicalpartyagnostic268]

[@alexmanzanero]

Does it harden like maybe for glueing items together like epoxy?

[@SadamFlu]

You been tripping on some acetone???

[@RinoaL]

Yeah I keep tripping over the can so was wanting to just use the rest up and throw it away. I got a lot of other paint cans I should prolly throw away too. They are just sitting in the opening of my shed and makes it tricky to walk without hitting one.

[@SadamFlu]

lol. i was meaning were you tripping out on acetone >.< nvm hehe!

[@RinoaL]

SadamFlu oh you mean like a drug? lol acetone doesnt do much to you. when i was cleaning the paint off the toaster with acetone i had like 3/4 of the can evaporated into the air in my bathroom. i felt light headed and weird, but it didnt feel enjoyable.

[@SadamFlu]

yeah thats what I was meaning, hehe. I think you can get high on it, not sure though. We used to melt polystyrene with petrol, then stick it on a big soup spoon, light it on fire and then throw it onto brick walls and shit. hehe. Have fun Rinoa.

[@IlovelouisDTV]

can anyone tell me what the product is? what's the exact reaction here? I understand that the acetone breaks up the polystyrene molecules into styrene. any further reactions? Would acetone react with styrene to form poly phenyl molecules?

[@ericcub78]

What is puddy? I know what putty is, but not puddy.

[@RinoaL]

+Eric H same thing

[@ericcub78]

It's not spelled "puddy"

[@RinoaL]

Eric H words dont have to have only one spelling, and you mean that you dont spell it puddy.

[@ericcub78]

Try looking up "puddy" in the dictionary. What do you get?

[@RinoaL]

Eric H sorry but a dictionary doesnt have any control over the english language, it only reports what it's writer's observe in the english language.

[@williambutler3204]

regular paint thinner works well to dissolve Styrofoam and it turns the Styrofoam into a clear plastic resin which works well for pouring into cracked concrete flooring, or to coat plywood with as a sealer like fiberglass resin, and you can use it just like fiberglass resin as well, it can be poured into a mold to make your own RC car or truck bodies and when dry it can be painted, it dries clear.

[@Jurgenels7]

+Benjamin King Excellent reply...but yeah people with acrylic nails soak their fingers in pure acetone.....a woman I worked with once shut her hand in the door, the false nail smashed into her nailbed and to get it off she had to soak the wounded finger in acetone!

[@goforbenja7409]

You guys are missing the point, it's not the acetone that bothers me, it's the melted styrofoam. Styrofoam is extremely carcinogenic when it starts to melt.

[@RealTimeQuestions]

harry s lol ur so mad

[@TeddysTube]

I too have experimented with this: There's another solvent - I don't know what it's called in english, though in danish it's called 'cellulose thinner' - that'll dissolve styrofoam too, but the result is much more liquid (less viscous) than with acetone. - And it will dry up as transparent hard plastic, as the solvent evaporates.. (So will the acetone jelly too, but it takes longer because the partially dried surface forms kindofa 'shell' that to some extent seal it and slow down evaporation).. The less viscous, 'cellulose thinner' based solution can to some extent be used to make a thin plastic coating on stuff, but may tend to peal off in flakes, if the layer is too thin.

AWESOME. Could this mixture be used as a glue? If so what materials will it glue together best? Great video and your an awesome person. Keep them coming.

I don't think it would be very good. But it might be good for making a solid piece you could then drill screws into. Still a matter of drying I though. I think I may need to put my polystyrene ball in my vacuum chamber to drive off all the acetone. Otherwise it takes a long time for the inside to dry. On second though it would be a lot like those materials that repair themselves. If the outer dry casing broke the liquid inside would fill the crack and fix it again.

***** yes i know. thanks though.

Rinoa Super-Genius Removing an acetone/air mixture with an electric vacuum pump that can be an ignition source might be problematic. I remember there was a news story about some criminals who decided they would use a shop vac designed to suck up dirty water to siphon out and steal gasoline. It was a blast. You might wish to send a positive pressure air without acetone over a "Venturi effect" nozzle to siphon the air/acetone mixture out of the vessel or as an alternative, vacuum out the regular atmosphere in a much larger vessel and then connect that vessel to the vessel containing the air/acetone mixture. Another possibility is a warm breeze from something like a hair dryer to speed up the process. Just put the hair dryer at the end of a tube upwind of the exit location of the acetone/air mixture. This is probably the safest and easiest method. Another idea in eliminating the flammability problem in a positive pressure arrangement is use the fact that acetone and water like each other, so if you blow the exhaust into water it will dissolve in it. I cannot stand the smell of acetone. Next time, you might wish to have molds ready to cast your projects. And you don't need to drill screws into it. You can cast the plastic around the screws.

You can't make a perfect hole in a piece of styrofoam by putting a piece of pipe on the foam then pour in a small amount of acetone and just hold it and push it through as the hole dissolves. I have done this for craft projects.

When we were kids, we used to melt polystyrene with petrol, turning it into a kind of flammable putty. This could be moulded into a golf ball sized blob, and projected using a pug stick, after igniting it. We thought the sound it made as it flew through the air was what an asteroid or meteorite would make.

U can use this as a laquer for wood

[@zakhoskins6404]

Interesting. I knew acetone could dissolve it, but I never thought about using just enough to turn it into a putty. I wonder how well this would work as a cheap way to make filler for EPS foam terrain in wargaming. Thanks for the vid!

It dries clear and is very hard. great sealer...It also works better with paint thinner.

[@siongsallseasonssportinggo7253]

This would be good to use in a mold for figurines and more.

i wish someone help me with Styrofoam and acetone.hard to get it with my buget, i know its strange. i study mechanics simulator 2016 and electronic stuff put together.i really wish i have dozens of both.make a car like same as bayler j67 all plastics automobile from U.K.

Can I just put the foam in water and boil it or cook it ?

[@Crixe]

Acetone splashing like you were doing is a great way to make foam look like stone if you water it down a bit. Acetone + styrene is also great replacement for bondo. Once it hardens up due to the lack of air pockets in the styrene it's very hard and great for putting together plastic armor (if you are careful anyway).

[@bustin1253]

Loved the video and that stuff would probably be pretty awesome for some different applications. But the acetone thing, the biggest issue with that isn't the fumes or getting high on it, its the fact that it can absorb right through the skin and cause damage to the nervous system. But something fun of you get into it is get some calcium carbide and make some acetylene with it.

[@RinoaL]

you do realize acetone is found naturaly in the human body and there isnt any good amount of evidence to show it harms the body right?
