As for Acetone, It says to use 100% Pure Acetone without any Fillers like Water or Benzoate; You can buy it in Beauty Supply Stores.
However the acetone purity is not all the same when you buy it at stores. I and others have found the best acetone for mileage is 100-percent pure. While we often get technical grade from a chemical supply at ScienceLab.com, we rely on the brands at beauty supply stores labeled 100-percent pure. What happens with impure acetone, even that which is labeled falsely as 100-percent pure? The engine runs rough. You mileage will not improve. Look at the label for undesirable ingredients, such as benzoate. Water in the acetone will make it go bad. If your car has bad plugs or faulty ignition wires or the engine needs work, you will not gain a mileage boost. Do not buy acetone from drug stores. I recently tried bad acetone with good gasoline in two of my cars. Both suffered a small decline in MPG from their normal mileage. Ran all that gas out and went back to the beauty acetone. The cars' mileage recovered to what it had been.
20 Liters of the stuff is $155; http://sciencelab.com/page/S/PVAR/SLA3808
