lloyd Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 I'm working on a time-critical formulation for a binder for a new product. DBY, I ordered a quart of propylene glycol to use as a plasticizer in a project. Amazon had a great deal on it, so I ordered a quart to try it. It came today, in a bottle clearly labeled VEGETABLE GLYCERINE, then with a small Amazon stock label stuck over the bar-code saying "propylene glycol". So... I tasted it, felt of it, and even tried some of it. It was too sweet, and too sticky to be propylene glycol, and it did not plasticize the resin I was working with. So instead of contacting Amazon, I contacted the vendor: "Bluewater Chemical Group". Most of their products go to 'VAPE-ers' and companies making vaping products. But of course, they get other users, as well. Instead of the usual two to three days' response time, I got a reply back in three hours saying that Amazon had done that, now, twice, and that they were UPS'ing me a quart of the authentic glycol, and that I could keep the wrong product, in case I had a need for it. Now... Amazon's goof aside, that's excellent service. When anyone gives me that kind of help, I tell others. Of course, when they DON'T, I tell ten times as many people! <grin> Bluewater Chemical Group, Ft. Wayne, IN Lloyd
lloyd Posted March 31, 2017 Author Posted March 31, 2017 Bluewater has also issued to me a "group coupon". Anyone who uses PG,VG, or mineral oil (like any VAPERS among you) can use this for 15% off their list prices, for any single size of their products (qt., 1/2gal, gallon)15% off promo code (AV2L7R9L). This is a group code so it may be used by multiple people throughout the end of April. Even though it may be used by multiple people, it is only good once per customer. It is good for one of the following:- Propylene Glycol (quart, half gallon, or gallon)- Vegetable Glycerin (quart, half gallon, or gallon)- Mineral Oil Gallon
