easy cocaine clean-up for the chemistry challenged

I'm curious whether acetone would be damaging to your veins, or otherwise unsafe to IV?

Bump on the earlier question about effectiveness of anisopropyl alcohol wash; also whether it is safe to iv Isopropyl alcohol in small amounts.

Is it possible to skip the overnight drying after the acetone wash if you want the coke dissolved anyway (for iv)? Does drying eliminate the acetone by evaporation?

Shit man, I wish I would've known about this a long time ago, when I first started blowing lines. I mean, I get some decent coke I think, it'll numb your whole head, but I still hate the fact that there's cuts in there and that I don't know what they are, so I'll be doing this from now on.

Only downside is having to wait 24 hours! Oh man, that'll be a true test of patience for me.

^ Oh yeah, I was going to ask about the alcohol as well. I have 99% rubbing alcohol and it would save me the hastle of going to the store to get acetone, but if acetone's the only way then that's fine, I'm just wondering.

Yes, it would be unhealthy to inject unevaporated acetone into your veins. Just as it would be to insuffilate it. It wouldn't be deadly, just not good. If you have access to pure diethyl ether, you could follow up the acetone wash with an ether wash. That would wash of any traces of acetone, plus ether evaporates very quickly, so you could inject or snort your cleaned up coke within an hour or so.

Any yes, drying evaporates the acetone. Technically, it really calls for 48 hours, but I've found 24 to be sufficient.

The alcohol extraction does work. Remember, when using 99% alcohol, your cocaine will dissolve while the cuts will remain solid (exact opposite of the acetone wash in which the cocaine stays solid). You'll find with an alcohol extraction that after filtering the alcohol/cocaine into a glass pie plate, that even after the alcohol evaporates, the substance still stays oily. I've found that rubbing some inositol over the oily cocaine will dry it fairly quickly, so keep that in mind.
 
Havent tried this yet, but read many of your posts on it. Really appreciate the work.. thank you
 
i read somewhere that if you bake epsome salt to a certain temp to remove any moisture and then pour it into acetone, shake a bit, then filter you will be left with dry acetone, which should be good for a few acetone rinses before it absorbs a significant amount of moisture from the air

then losing product is not an issue
 
hi there i am new here and have been reading the coke purification threads. Totally agree with the shitty effect mentioned, seems to be the same with most coke around the NW UK nowadays. So i am thinking of giving this a whirl. Has anyone else tried it? What were the results? Any risks involved? We've all heard about blindness from acetone 8o
 
I really wanna try this, I live in Holland and I think it's really easy to get ether here (pharmacy?). I'm just wondering if ether also filters out any active cuts.

Yes, diethyl ether is a great cocaine solvent. Just as is anhydrous acetone.

I have lab grade ether and acetone, so I always first wash with acetone and then follow it with an ether wash. The ether will also remove any traces of acetone so that you may snort nearly right away (30 minutes or so).

I hope this also helps with the question posted above.

I will most def try these steps!! something about turning the coke in FB was freaking me out!! :D

If i dont use ether (too many images of spontaneous combustiong here!) will traces of acetone get removed when the coke is drying? Also you say to use a light in your original post. As i dont have a suitable light can the coke be left to dry for a day or 2?

Many thanks

malko,

Yes, and I should have prefaced that last reply with......................................................................................................................ETHER IS HIGHLY COMBUSTABLE AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO USE. IN FACT, IF YOUR CHEMISTRY CHALLENGED IN THE FIRST PLACE, AVOID USING ETHER ALLTOGETHER!

I appreciate your reminding me of the "combustion" issue. Thanks again.

And secondly, in answer to your question of traces of acetone remaining in your cocaine, the answer is no. Let me stress that you must use "anhydrous acetone" to begin with. It can be purchased thru www.sciencelab.com. Scroll down thru all of their different grades of acetone until you find the one that says, "Acetone NF". That is the one they sell that is completely anhydrous. It may cost a little more, but you MUST have NO water in your acetone or anywhere near your cocaine. Just 1 ml. of water will dissolve an entire gram of cocaine. See why?

You can fold up the filter paper real good after your done smashing it between the paper towels to absorb any heavy amounts of acetone. After that, you can place it in front of a blow dryer for a few minutes to dry the cocaine to what is a dry level. Though it will still contain traes of dry acetone at this point.

But, once you've "dried" it with the blow dryer, carefully open up your filter paper and let the contents fall out onto a ceramic plate. Use a non-serated knife to gently scrape off any remaining trces of cocaine that are stuck to the filter paper. Just scrape lightly, or you might actually start rubbing off some of the paper into your cociane. No biggie, just not preferable.

Then, let the plate sit open, in a non-humid environment, away from pets or airflow such as fans etc. At the top of your closet is usually a great spot.

Allow 48 hours and it will be COMPLETELY free from any traces of acetone. Guaranteed!

Good luck, malko

P.S. And thanks again for reminding me about the ether. ;)

thanks for the reply Lejunk. I'll give the acetone was a whril! One final question.......you got me worried here hehe.........i can just dry it out for a few mins with a normal 'hair drier'?? Acetone is flammable but i assume its not THAT flamable its going to catch alught under this heat? And i know this has been asked before (i think) but will this make the effects of the coke 'better'?

Thanks

No, to the catching on fire with a hair dryer thingy, and absolutely YES, this will make your cocaine better! Just wait 48 hours and tell me what you think then.

P.S. One last piece of advice, since it sounds as though your really going to do this. When washing with the anhydrous acetone, after stirring for a minute or two, tightly cover the beaker with some plastic wrap as to keep the acetone from drawing in any moisture from the air. That's why we wanted anhydrous in the first place. Secondly, after stirring and then covering, it's extremely important that you completely let the mixture settle. This may happen within minutes if it's fairly pure, or may take up to half an hour if it's really adulterated. Whatever the case, make sure the cocaine has completely settled on the bottom and the acetone on top is completely clear. Once this happens, carefully uncover and then slowly pour out your clear acetone into the sink, stopping just short of any cocaine falling out.
Now, let the mixture fall back into the beaker, fill with 20 ml.s of fresh acetone, stir real quick and this time, pour everything you can into the awaiting filter paper placed inside of the funnel for support. If any (and it will) cocaine still sticks to the side of the beaker, pour a lil' more fresh acetone in, swish around and pour into the same filter paper.
Once all of the acetone has drained thru into the awaiting drinking glass (which you might have to empty once during this procedure if it fills up to much), pour just a tiny bit more fresh acetone into the filter containing the cocaine to remove any last possible traces of impurities.

If you follow my instructions entirely (and they're easy to do), your cocaine will be improved 100% or better, or my name isn't Le Junk!

i've heard of people using leather. they pour the cocaine on the leather and shaking it across the surface. apparently the cut is left on the leather. anybody ever tried this?

best friend coming to stay for a long weekend in 3 weeks.........want to blow his mind! got to try this before hand. Going to get in 1/2 a G in a couple of weeks and give it a try!

I am in the UK. Do you think the acetone at the hardware stores will be okay?

No. Hardware store acetone contains both water and/or alcohol. Both of which cocaine are entirely soluble in. In other words, you'll lose most, or all of your cocaine using hardware store acetone.

That's why it's imparative that you obtain ANHYDROUS ACETONE. Otherwise, you'll lose everything.

Do a U.K. internet search for chemical supply companies in the U.K. We have Google as our search engine. I would assume you have either the same or something similiar to go about finding a chemical supply company you can either order from online, or go to directly to obtain the ANHYDROUS ACETONE.

It's not a "watched item", so ordering it won't draw any red flags. Search and ye shall find. Just make sure it's ANHYDROUS. Ask, if your not entirely sure.

Good luck!

I've never bumped into anything anhydrous. So, is this anhydrous stuff in liquid form or is it just powder? How can it be anhydrous if it's liquid? ... and I don't understand how it would work if it would be powder. 8(

I understand the definition of the word 'anhydrous' as non-water. My head tells me that if something is in liquid form it has to have some water on it.

This is crazy. I'm tired. =D
