Default Alcohol as cutting fluid?

Tap Magic used to contain 1.1.1 trichloroethane, not 1.1.1 trichlorethylene.
The latter is also
known as perchloroethylene or dry cleaning fluid. This is still available as
Carbosolv at my local
hardware store. I have a couple of gallons of trichloroethane stashed away to
be used sparingly for
things that require it. KPR thinner is one use.........Paul


Where is this "local hardware store" at which perchloroethylene is still
available?
