You dirty dirty… It’s time to show off! What is the most extreme cleaning you’ve ever performed?

    You use a solvent that is stronger than what you want to remove, but not so strong that it also removes the thing you’re trying to clean.

          Ngl I have mixed aqua regia to clean out my pestle and mortar in a lab course once. Shit went from uncleanable to clean really quick. H_2O_2 + conc. HCl is sufficient for most extreme cleaning needs tho.
