Where to buy 90% Hydrogen Peroxide

Back in the seventies and early eighties I bought my 90% Hydrogen Peroxide from FMC. It was shipped to us in 24 Gallon double lined aluminum barrels.

When I first started buying it, the price was $150.00 a barrel. As more and more Rocket Cars were being built. One of the Rocket Car racers was not returning the empty barrels, so there was a shortage of barrels, so FMC said they were not going to make any more barrels and promptly raised the price to $1200.00.

This same racer who had allot of money came to the conclusion if he still kept all the barrels he would run all the rest of the Rocket car owners out of business.

What happened was that plan backfired FMC decided if you wanted 90% Hydrogen Peroxide. You now had to buy a whole tanker full, and have proper storage for it. Needlessly to say that was the end of Rocket Car Racing in the USA.


This picture shows what 90% Hydrogen Peroxide will do to your
skin if you don't have proper protection on when handling it.


This is a picture of a Hydrogen Peroxide barrel that I still have left over from my Rocket Car Racing days.
