STS-130 cupola question
"David Spain" wrote in message ... "Jorge R. Frank" writes: Good question. I know it's not alcohol. There was a presentation a few years ago on "ISS alcohol ban" and I read it thinking it was the drinking kind, but it was the cleaning kind. But for the life of me, I don't know what the "approved" glass cleaners on ISS are. I found this: QC5020... http://www.andersonsanitary.com/msds.html Which links to this under link called: QC5020 Class Cleaner for Space Station http://www.andersonsanitary.com/MSDS...ss_Cleaner.pdf also an easier-to-read version about this on QC5020: http://www.midlab.com/midlab/images/...912-502000.pdf Appearance: Blue liquid with a faint alcohol odor and subtle floral scent. ? Sounds like Windex brand glass cleaner to me. Jeff -- "Take heart amid the deepening gloom that your dog is finally getting enough cheese" - Deteriorata - National Lampoon |

Hmm, the closest to a branding I could get for this product by reference to QC5020 was something called Maxim(R) Glass Cleaner Concentrate: http://tinyurl.com/yzjgwt6 But who knows, on the Bigelow Transhab the same stuff might be called Windex(tm). OTOH you buy enough of this stuff in bulk and I'll bet you can get a better price than $1,000 bottle, but then you can't use it as a floor wax, or a dessert toping, or as an after-dinner apartif, either... That floral scent is what makes it that way, if you went for the Yak dropping scent you'd get it for a whole lot less... ;-) Dave |
