Ah, fond memories of 1980s Liquid Paper, dissolved in 1.1.1-Trichloroethylene. Smelt heavenly... For some reason, Tipp-ex (which also used Trike) smelt terrible.

Then they all went water-based, and took days to set properly.

Oops, that'd be 1,1,1-Trichloroethane apparently (thanks Wikipedia).

so... which one is "Trike"? Trichloroethylene or 1,1,1-Trichloroethane?

SwarfnStuff:
Ade,
  Sorry, but my chem days were way in the past and like all common names I would bet "Trike" would be applied to both. Think of Biro which is applied to virtually any ball point pen or Thermos, Masonite, etc.
  Guess that is why the medical profession like to use Latin = less ambiguity or, heaven help us, try reading a legal document. All those 'hereinafter' and other strange words have been tested in court so the legal eagles know the legal meaning. Even if clear as mud to us.

While I like the Tubal Cain idea, I took a different approach.

When I have another container ready, I will make another one and annodize one yellow and one green for either Rapid Tap or A9.

My version is a simple kiddies non spill paint pot, fitted with a bit of copper tube hot glued in. Nice ideas from other members though, well done to all...
