Well, i guess 5% will be about equivalent then.

Say is this stuff corrosive? The finished solution i mean. I'm wondering  
if i can fit a metal spout to the lid or not.

I already measured up the IPA but i discovered my distilled water has some  
unidentified particles swimming in it. I'll better get some new water  
tomorrow, don't want any particles in there.

When i wash out cartridges, do i need to use distilled water all the time?  
I read on inksupply.com about cutting open the carts to get out the sponge  
for a good cleaning, that sounds interesting... I'm not sure if they talk  
about tap water or distilled water. My tap water is very hard, had to  
switch to distilled even for the soldering sponge, it would get all  
crusted up...
