Default RE: MEK vs MEKP

I don't know why anyone would want to mix all this stuff into model airplane fuel. Just go buy you RC fuel favorite brand and fly!

Can't do that. No hobby shop for 200 miles. And all the shops in the big city of Toronto, (450 miles) "say diesel fuel? are you kidding?"

So, I mix my own, 40/40/20 with 2% (I thought) MEKP. Yep, it'll burn out your eyeballs when you mix up your resin but you're warned to be careful. So, when I mix my fuel, I do it outside, wear vinyl gloves and wraparound safety glasses.

Turns out, I can buy diesel fuel ingredients locally,,, can't do that with glow fuel. Been flying a LOT of diesel lately.
