Where can I buy some Wood Bleach in West Yorks?
I am after the 2 part peroxide stuff (I believe I need a specialist shop
rather than the DIY sheds). Pref around the Bradford/Huddersfield area but I can go as far as Leeds if necessary. cheers |

You may find hydrogen peroxide (part2) at an agricultural wholesaler, and you can use caustic soda or washing soda for part 1. Certainly cheaper that way. |

Both a and b will destroy ordinary bristle. Use plastic gloves. Part B stings. Leave partB to dry completely before assessing the results Decant what you need from the main containers, and don't pour it back. The smallest trace of partA in partB will cause the container to swell and lose strength. The cap should have small holes in it to allow the gas to escape, but keep an eye on it. Good luck |
