May I suggest adding some notes to the article saying how long it should take to break an emulsion using glycerin. IE is it a five-minute wait, or hours, or a day or more?

hi there
i have a great emulsion here,
does methonal alone break emulsions (as i have used my glycerin for cleaning)
if so how much %
i have pour a load in and the methonal its about 50 ltr of prossesed oil and 7 liter of methonal now, just seems to float on the top after stirring.
many thanks,
gary.

borntorace,

Adding methanol alone will not break your emulsion.
