green masking tape

[CliffS]

Looking for green colored masking tape (name/brand). I noticed this tape in all kind of build articles/pics, to protect parts from scratching. Just try to find out if it's available overhere.

Local NAPA or P%B store..

[CliffS]

Blue stuff works fine as well. Home Depot paint area is where you can find it. I have seen the green stuff as well.

Guys, both Cliff and I live in the Netherlands, so no NAPA or Home Depot here.

Cliff, the green tape is being made by Scotch 3M, I must have some laying around, but I don't know where exactly. I'll be looking out for it, so I can tell you which 3M p/n to use.

Somebody else know the 3M p/n? Feel free to help us out.

Thanks Steve!

[Steve68]

Glad to help with the little stuff, Just ask anything hi tek, like nuclear power or why's the sky blue, lol

Just ask anything hi tek,
I'll bite.
If hydrogen is flammable, and oxygen vigorously accelerates combustion, why doesn't water burn?

[Steve68]

See I screwed up my own post I missed the DON'T ask anything hi tek,

But, If you really want I can probabally find a NASA Engineer at work to answer your Q,

I know the answer, but thanks anyway:cool: .

[Steve68]

Good, now I don't have to go bother anybody.

Whoaahhh Big Boy, and what 'bout us here in the old world? You leave us hanging without a clue??

[Steve68]

I forgot to add to the last post "whats the answer?"

So what is the answer, if dosent tell I go find out,

[CliffS]

Thanks guys!! I have my buddy include some tape with a box of new parts coming over to Europe.:naughty:

So what is the answer, if dosent tell I go find out,

Water (h2o) only has one molecule of oxygen. Not as effective as o2 for combustion (way too rich). If you were to add the second molecule of oxygen, (h2o2) you would not have water but hydrogen peroxide. This, in it's pure form (you can only get 3% hydrogen peroxide 97% water in a drug store) is highly volitile and explosive:drive2: . I'm sure there's more scientific crap to this answer, maybe Steve68 will ask the rocket scientists anyway.

[Steve68]

I can ask around,

but by adding the 2 nd molecule of oxygen, you get a peroxide, thats interesting,

We get Isopropyl Alcohol the same way, you 10% in the drug store, we 99.8% pure, the real good uses for 99%, the stuff works great!

Water is already 'burnt'. The reaction has already taken place and combined the hydrogen and oxygen.
You can break the molecules back apart with high enough heat (thermolysis) or electrical energy (electrolysis)

If I remember correctly, the thermolytic temp is 2500 degrees Celcius.

From my experience water won't ignite but it can burn you, when heated to make steam you have an energy source that will find itself infinately displacing space until it is reformed back to it's original state. I have had several steam burns that didn't feel very good and if you have ever seen one of those original Steam engines of old down on the farm you would definately believe that water is an energy source all its own that is very powerful and efficient and at it's best or worst when it burns.
