Tried the conosol 260 that the chemical company sent me today. Works great! Pics to follow. I will be buying a 55 gal drum of the stuff.

I'll be trying out some concrete form release this weekend. I've heard of guys using similar stuff. If it works out, it should cost between 4-5 bucks a gallon. Right now I use full scale stuff, basically super dri.

Yah, we tried the Conosol 260 also. It works great. We are bringing in a 55 gallon drum of it for the Sin CIty Jets rally in November. Great some, much cheaper than Super Dri.

Apparently there are several types of Conosol. I am going to call the manufacturer and ask them which one smokes the best.

conosol 260, buy it at your local chemical supply, about 6 bucks a gallon

its basically what super dri is
Ronnie, not so easy in my area. I called a few "chemical" suppliers here, and nobody knew what I was talking about or could point me in the right direction. It seems that if I'm to get this stuff, it will have to be from somewhere else rather than locally [:@].

Most peole are using corvus oil which is concrete form release oil. Conosol 260 is probably just a brand name, which may not be available in your area.

It's just a hydrocarbon. Give the chemical company the cas# of conosol 260 and have them get close

Call them and ask for a "Mineral Seal Oil" will do the same thing

FYI "260" is just the flash point.

I have already gotten a quote and they have sent me a sample. 4.37 per gallon. They will ship it to my house.

Where in Louisiana? The nearest supply place I can find will have to order it, it'll be $8.79/gallon, and is only available in 55 gallon drums.

Here are a couple pics from the Conosol oil that Andy had, not the greatest of pictures but the smoke looked really good.

I thought I had more pics but they did not turn out. The Conosol looked good.
