    Hautentgiftungssalbe

    Hi

    Today I got a few bottles of "Hautentgiftungssalbe" but unfortunately the text is partly unreadable....

    Is there someone who has a readable label and is willing to take a picture of it ?

    I'm interested in the complete text as you can imagine

    Thanks

            WARNING...Again

            Anytime I see these posts for these gas decon items, I feel inclined to post a warning for collector information. If you have full bottles of the decon agent shown, the weapons grade decon agent, or full boxes of the losentin tablets... DO NOT store these near other valuble items or with in small enclosed displays with other items. Especially not in the canister with your gasmasks. You are possibly risking disaster to other beloved items in your collection.

            Contrary to some reference books and collector/dealer comments these items were not stored in the gasmask canister for a very good reason. These agents are hightly chlorinated substances any leak can rust your metal, bleach and decay cloth, and dry rot rubber compounds. A small leak could easily render a gasmask useless.

            Further, losantine is a diseccant, that is it absorbs moisture from the atmosphere much like soda. This makes full boxes prone to leech out and leak over time unless stored in a very dry place.

            My losantine boxes are in individual sealed bags and any decon liquid is disposed of.

            Regards,
            Mike

              That's a very good point. From the hundreds\thousands of bottles we found last year the liquid when first opening the bottles was odourless but after a while exposed to the air whilst were were emptying them the smell of chlorine was quite evident although not strong. Then we found a big equipment deco bottle, the smell of chlorine in that was so strong we had to get it emptied and cleaned straight away.
