Tippex My Ride

The scratch repair kit calls it 'high build primer' but you can't fool me; I know trichloroethylene when I smell it. It being a white car probably doesn't help.

And I thought I was the only one on my f-list who came into contact with dry cleaning solvents regularly! I usually only see pictures and contamination reports. . .

I used to be a school chemistry technician. We had to stop doing some fun experiments when 1,1,1-trichloroethylene got banned, because there was nothing else the reagents would dissolve in. But in this case it's the distinctive smell of correction fluid, with probably the same extra-pungent anti-sniffing additive.

1,1,1-trichloroethane, even.
