TSP

[par0thead151]

so, i just realized that TSP is banned in all 49 states except michigan.
i am going to order some online as my state(wisconsin) banned its use jan 1 2010.
all in the name of "saving the environment"
my question is, how long would 20# last me?

A few years ago, when I was running a hardware store, I sold "phosphate free" TSP. I didn't quite get it... but apparently the TSP brand recognition was too strong to change it when they took out the P.

maybe I am wrong but I thought I purchased TSP at Home Depot? Used it to strip grease off kitchen cabinets before re-facing them.

you can thank the environmental wackos for another good product banned.
there is TSP brand degrease'er, but it does not have the original chemical composition of TSP
