Mineral Turps and Metho

[debden8]

How do I get rid of these? I presume that I can't put them down the drain and I can't find any info on the local council website.

You can use metho & water to clean windows.

Metho is not a problem to dispose it is a natural

spirit & will evaporate harmlessly if poured out in

the open. 

Turps is a bit messy to dispose of as it is a light

oil but it can be used to treat any wood that is out

side in the weather.

50% turps 50% raw linseed oil is good for out door timber

Nothing dangerous about Metho if it is stored properly.

It is great for cleaning diamond jewellery....I let my jewellery stand for a few minutes then give it a once over with a soft toothbrush and it looks like new.

It is also great for cleaning windows and mirrors....cheap and effective.

Call the council, they should have either a collection of dangerous materials, or a depot.
