I am a Mad Chemist!
Ok, so even with two Chemistry classes under my belt, did I stop to think of what would happen. No, of course not. Silly Me.
I am the Mad Chemist, Volcanic Toliets here I come!
Well, the upstairs bathroom toliet lately has been slow. So, I went to Publixs to get something to correct the situation. I looked at different Drain-Os. But, found nothing that said it would be safe for a toliet.
Just as I was leaving, the title "Liquid Lighting" caught my attention. Cool name. Picked it up, and saw that it had a safe for toliet use. Then I read the ingredients. "Virgin Sulfuric Acid, with 12 buffers". Hmmm, sounds dangerous. This is sure to work on a slow toliet.
BIG WARNING: AVOID CONTACT WITH ANYTHING ORGANIC!
-----------------
Well, I get it home, eager to use the "Liquid Lighting". I open the container. Wow, did it smell toxic! Bringing back memories of Chemistry class.
I pour the recommended amount into the toliet bowl water. Within seconds, I had a nightmarish chemical reaction. The water start bubbling and smoking and toxic fumes! A true volcanic reaction bubbling away, about to boil over onto the bathroom floor.
In my panic state of mind, I flushed the toliet. Now was this a wise idea. No, clue. But, soon after what I did. I paniced yet again. My heart dropped, and my ears strained to hear something go KABOOM in my pipes. A few seconds passed. Nothing. I ran down stair, to listen closer. Still nothing.
With waiting a few minutes just to be sure, I then went upstairs. I had to open a few windows. The upstairs smelled really bad.
I went into my new "Chemical Lavatory". And, for good measure, decided to flush the toliet again. This time, the toliet bowl swirled once again that pretty blue color.
And, guess what! The "Liquid Lighting" most have done its job! Because the toliet flushes and empties like a little whirlpool.
Lesson learned. Pour "Liquid Lightning" in only water. Water already being treated by chemicals is asking for trouble.
