I just looked that up, and isn't that a gas at room temperature? Unless you mean methylene bichloride (dichloromethane), which does appear to be a liquid.


(I dropped out of studying chemistry in a past life, so I know a little about this stuff but it's been long enough ago that looking these things up, I mainly realise how much I've forgotten.)



Funny anecdote here is that two months ago, I was talking to someone who told me Tamiya Extra Thin was so fast he can barely get parts into position before it evaporates. I replied that I use it when I need more time to position parts than with what I normally glue kits with :) (I looked up the MSDS for that and it says it's basically 25–50% naphtha, 10–25% ethyl acetate, 10–25% desulfurised naphtha and 10–25% butanone (AKA MEK). It evaporates a lot faster than TET, I know that much :)



From what I remember of my chemistry studies, I'm not sure I want to be in the same room as that for very long :)
