    • but theres more...

      if you dont put in styrafome till it turns brown, you can light it on fire, breath in the smoke, get high for 3 min, kill all your brain cells and die!

  • highly toxic but...

    you can also make napalm out of it before it drys. light it on fire and it will burn for a long time. You can substitue acetone with gasoline (but the smell is worse)

    • Another recipe is diesel fuel and motor

      I could only put it out using sand on a basketball court. The fire will float on top of the water even with a power hose. Great fun, lol.

  • You Should...

    wear latex or similar gloves when you do this so that you don't chemically burn your hands.

  • Rubbish...

    This is recycling a rubbish into another rubbish in a more condensed form.

  • Good to show here

    the compound will turn hard when it dry. It can be used in filling the hole or mending the fraction or gap between two surfaces inorder to avoiding water leak.

  • EFFECTS

    HOW DO YOU GET THE GOOP OUT OF THE BOWL?
    IF THIS IS A FORM OF NAPALM, CAN YOU BURN IT?
    ONCE THE SMOKE CLEARS AND THE ROOM IS TOTALLY BLACKENED, DO YOU CALL A FRIEND AND ASK IF YOU CAN LIVE WITH THEM?
    IS THE VOODOO DOLL THE OWNER OD THE ABODE?

  • highly toxic

    I know lots said it before, you should wear gloves because some of it could penetrate your skin causing a lot of damage to blood vessels,it could even reach your liver and cause partial liver damage, also kidneys and bladder.

    • Bladder Damage ???

      Then we could Pee or pants all the time.....YEA lets try it ! ! !

  • You could use Petrol instead of Acetone?

    Petrol would do the same and you could make a glue to paste things:)

  • styrofoam is not plastic

    so the title is wrong and what i'vs seen here is not really recycle,all that material,acetone mixt with you name it is kinda bad for body, but anyway .......good try

    By stellubv 1228925198
    • it is plastic

      its a form of plastic. There are even liquid plastics. Its all in the composition. Ethylene and Propylene are the foundations and all plastics are made from them. Perhaps you should do a little research before posting.

    • How to do this with plastic bottle?

      I noticed the acetone did not dissolve the plastic bottle from which it was poured. What chemical can be used to dissolve plastic bottles, specifically a two liter soda bottle? I found this site while searching for the answer to this question. Thanks!

    By mister mean guy 1227738042
  • why would people

    By Mikka86 1227727855
