You know the quick dry Wite-Out Correction Fluid. I was just curious if anyone knew what it was made of. I read that it was a petroleum product, but not sure whats all in it.

That doesn't help huh. It says nothing about whats in it. It is probably a conspiracy.

Chalk, and a binder soluable in trichloroethane (an organic solvent).

Of course, trichloroethane has anaesthetic properties, which is why sad junkie losers sniff it and other solvents.

stop sniffing the white out!!!!



asking what is in white out is like telling a little kid what hotdogs are made out of while he is eatting one :p




i wonder why they made thoes markers with the fruity smells... so kids can kill brain cells inhaling the fumes from the GRAPE/purple marker?
:D
