C37 ingredient guessing

pop11 · 29th July 2004, 05:17 PM

no willing to start another C37 debate again, I just wanna to know what will be you best educated guess for the ingredient of C37.

Thanks.

Why guess? If someone will send me a sample, I'll be happy to analyze it and tell all.

pop11 · 29th July 2004, 05:25 PM

Cool! You work in a lab or something?

I do 2 small bottles (diff temp), how much do you need to do the job?

Chemist with some years of formulation experience in inks and coatings.

A few milliliters will do.

My totally unsubstantiated and very WAG is that it's some sort of traditional spirit varnish with hide glue mixed in - somehow. It shouldn't be hard to figure out the solvent just from the smell.

Chemical analysis would give a more useful answer....

FWIW, it's my guess, too. Plain old ordinary varnish; I don't even think I'll find any hide glue or PVA or the like. But an analysis will tell.

What is C37? Some type of stain or something?

It is some audiophiles varnish that improves the sound of anything (according to the maker). Have a look here:

B.t.w. SY, Don’t wonder if there is some extra shellac added too.

Cheers

Ah but is it ethical to "publish" the formula without permission? Is that not the same as publishing the schematic of some current production equipment?
