archaeoImages Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Hi, Looking for a source of distilled water in the UK. Seems to be difficult to get hold of (particularly at a reasonable price). Thanks - Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_unsworth1 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Have you tried de-ionised water from Halfords or similar. Containers normally come in 5 litre bottles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry_wilkinson1 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Most chemist will get you purified water in 5 litre containers. I'm sure this is more than good enough. Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bernard_korites Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I get it from CVS. They're everywhere here in the US, don't know about the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob loxley Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Why not buy a domestic water distiller - can be had for <?100. Have a look on ebay for starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
profhlynnjones Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 You probably shouldn't use distilled H2O for anything but wetting agent. All processing solutions have sequestering agent for hardness and adding that to distilled or de-ionized may well cause frilling or excessive softening of the emulsion.
