Subject:Alcohols and Plastic Compatibility
From:Marty Wallace

Not ALL plastics are soluble in ALL alchols.

There ARE plastics that are completely impervious to ethanol, propanol,
and isopropyl alcohol.

Now, whether the plastics used in Westy plumbing is insoluble in these
alcohols, I dunno...  Anyone know EXACTLY which plastic(s) is/are used?

Just wanted to set the record straight,
