Surprisingly, a lot of useful chemicals can be found at your everyday supermarket! And in this video, I'll be showing you a few of the most useful ones you can find.
I know this video is a bit different, but I figured it would still be worth posting, since a recent poll I did showed a lot of people wanted me to make a video on this topic. More videos to come soon, and of much better quality!
