In Reply to: Record Cleaning Solution.... posted by Ivan303 on February 3, 2021 at 13:09:22:
As you noticed, it doesn't take very much of the Triton X-100, as it is seriously concentrated. So, your plastic bottle of Triton X-100 will sit on a shelf for a long time. Mine sat so long that the Triton nonionic surfactant ate a hole near the bottom of the plastic bottle and leaked out. Cleaning up the surfactant took forever.
I started by mechanically removing as much as I could then took forever with a sponge and water. I lost count of the number of sponge and rinse cycles. It just kept coming and coming. The other problem was the other items on the shelf were also covered with Triton X-100. I did end up with a very clean shelf though.
I transferred the remaining X-100 to a glass bottle. One hint that I failed to act upon was that the original plastic container was gradually compressing. It looked like the bottle was squeezed and never expanded. I should have investigated the reason for that a lot earlier.
Fortunately, the water in my house enters a septic system and not the Pacific Ocean, so the salmon will not taste like catfish.
