    Distilled water in UK

    Not sure where you guys go to get distilled water in UK but if you get stuck or you need a fair amount, pm me because I have ready access to lots at work.

    Not too sure what to use for containers (we have to send them back) or postal costs but if anyone is in need I can find out

    Bummer! Too late for me, but that's a really kind offer Container-wise, 5L plastic fuel cans cost about £3-£4

    Postage is another matter tho. RM will charge between £9 and £11 depending on the level of service. Don't know other couriers...

    Still, I wouldn't have minded paying £15 for 5L of distilled water.

    5L of mayhems ultra pure distilled is £15 from www.specialtech.co.uk. Ordered some yesterday - doh! I'll try and make a mental note of the offer for next time though if you don't mind dude? Very kind, thx!

    I had a quick look around and am a bit unclear on containers still......it all seems to depend on quantity ordered

    I am guessing around £10-13 a gallon, £15-18 2 galls and up around £20something for 5 galls as delivered prices

    .......even if you don't need 5 galls all at once it should keep and you could add pt nuke ..... it sure is cheaper that way.

    I'll try to get a few containers organised just in case

    Try www.parcel2go.com : £5.99 for up to 5kg (5l) and £8.99 for 5kg to 15kg with DHL iirc.

    There's also the Hermes option for £3.99+vat up to 15kg. Its 3-5 working days but delivery and collection is not guaranteed. If it goes missing its gone. Given the containers should be cheap and the water is free it could be a worthwhile option .

    If u can't find distilled water easily, same applies here in Greece, go to a drug store and buy Water For Injections. It's water distilled twice.

    Here in Greece it costs about 1.5€/LT
