Hi all,

I couldn't find all the ingredients to make the recommended recipe so i found a substitute that works really good. (i'll post some pics later). I found this hydrogen peroxide custom mix at a hairdressers when i was in Winnipeg and it works great. Looking at the list of ingredients it already has glycerine in there and it is already in a paste form so it doesn't need thickening. Adding the Oxy causes it to start working and it generates quite a good foam. I took the keys off a yellowed keyboard and have had them sitting on the windowledge for about 8 hours. Window is open and the outside temp is 1deg Celcius and it is pretty sunny (yep, 1 degree, I'm sitting on the 58th Parallel so it is still winter here). I also notice that this manufacturer has English and European arms of its company so you may be able to get the same item there (or equivalent). I recommend giving it a look, it really does a good job!.

Here is a Hi Res image of the pic so you can check out the ingredient list...
