noticed that 2 part drain cleaner consists of hydrogen peroxide and
regular drain cleaner--did sosme experimenting--took some hydrogen
peroxide say 1 8 oz gave it a squirt of dish washer detergent and poured
in some drain clenaer--tremendous bubbling of the peroxide and large
amount of suds from the detergent--then

poured hot water down drain, then 8 oz of peroxide and squirt of
detergent then drain cleander--nothing backed up drain but i suspect
massive foaming in drain--i understand that when bubbles are formed they
exert thousands of tons of force--should really get cleqaner dispersed
in drain--i would wear total eye protection if you want to
experiment--next time i am going to use more concentrated hydrogen
peroxide like they us to bleach hair

Do be careful dear. If you're not 100% positive what the outcome would be it
is best to leave well alone. I used a drain cleaner once that ate the bottom
of my u - bend away, I dread to think what it could have done if mixed with
another chemical.

Mrs Bonk

you are reasonably right--the drain cleander thqt would eat away pipes
is usually concentrated sulfuric acid--

take care
