Toluene 100% pure... mfg. by Bortz Chemicals is a pure hydrocarbon with an octane rating of 121. There is a simple mathematical formula used to mix various pump gas octane levels with toluene to achieve the final result. Search the forum for previous posts, or search google... Be careful not to get this stuff on your paint...

PS: California has banned the sale of Toluene in hardware / paint stores because of new EPA regulations... I have to order it from Arizona now... BUMMER !
