Elos destroyed my pants...
Has anyone else experienced this? I've now put holes in 3 pairs of jeans because I accidentally dripped a very small amount of elos test kit regent onto my pants! I think its the ultra corrosive phosphate kit solutions that did it but its hard to tell as I usually use several test kits at a time.
Here is the pair that got it the most because I was shaking the solution and the loose cap allowed little drips to splatter everywhere.

Scary! I'd hate to think what would happen if some got into the tank!

Testing the Alk using either Salifert or Elos involves a titration where the final reagent is sulphuric acid. (As I understand it)
