Homebrew PCBs

Actually i don't think i would have any problems where i buy
chemicals, but i'm certain there will be problems at some places, even
if one only buys H2O2 alone.
Of course it's also hard for the shops, if someone was to buy stuff
there and cause mayhem with it there would be much finger pointing, at
the very least.

As long as they stay reasonable, i would not have an issue with
providing ID and an explanation why i need it. But i am also certain
any such measure would be utterly ineffective since the criminals will
just use another substance. If they are prepared to die you can
imagine to what length they are prepared to go in order to get what
they want.

The problem is the authorities overreact, and many shop owners may
decide it's not worth the bother. As a result perfectly useful (and
cheap) chemicals will be even harder to come by. I'm sure that has
already happened in some places, especially the UK where it seems
chemicals were already difficult to come by before.

Personally i would recommend to try and find a specialist chemical
supplier. They see customers needing H2O2 for many different purposes
every day. If you go to the hairdressers supplier you are the odd
person without license who claims to need H2O2 for something weird, if
hairdresser suppliers and hairdressers are alike they will never be
able to understand your explanation.
