LabChem LC197601 Potassium Iodide Solution, 10% W/V, 500 mL Volume https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BKWQIXO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Gpf3CbTMNGGPT
This is getting pricey:
Solution A:
Sulfuric acid $20I don't think this is concentrated enough to do the trick. This might be a showstopper since, even if I could get ahold of a higher concentration, I've heard too many horror stories about working with undiluted sulfuric acid that I may just want to pass.Solution B:
Solution C:
And distilled water is a couple bucks per gallon at the grocery store. Looking at around $100, and that is assuming I get all the ingredients right the first time and don't have to reorder any of this and ruin some of my ingredients in the process. Many of the ingredients will have leftovers, but the potassium Iodate seems pretty expensive for such a small amount that I'll use half of just to make one batch.
EDIT: Not too surprisingly, it seems like the acids and peroxides I've listed may not be nearly concentrated enough to do the trick.
EDIT2: Updated hydrogen peroxide link to a 35% concentration instead of first aid style which is 2-3%.
What? They didn't die, and the key ingredients are widely available.

Water, baking soda, a stir plate and some glassware. If you like to preserve longer, you can go the extra mile and dry with molecular sieve: https://www.amazon.com/HFS-Molecular-Sieve-Zeolite-8X12m/dp/B06Y2B4CPK/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=chemical+sieve&qid=1563574672&s=industrial&sr=8-3
I see this sort of post all the time, "poppers don't hit like they used to because wah". Dude you built a tolerance! Deal with it or better yet make your own.
Reviews on this are mixed.
Will this work? https://www.amazon.com/LabChem-LC197601-Potassium-Iodide-Solution/dp/B01BKWQIXO/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1538698382&sr=8-6&keywords=potassium+iodide
Hell yeah man, if you can't find it locally you can always get it off amazon, 2 days with Prime even

For light blue, not opaque, with zero problems try distilled water and copper (II) sulfate. It only takes a drop or two for your whole loop. Dropper bottles are pretty cheap too. I love me some Amazon for stuff like this on the cheap. I stated with Mayhems opaque but after all the horror stories I figured distilled water was the life for me.
sure, but i don't need pure. https://smile.amazon.com/LabChem-LC181952-Phenol-Solution-5/dp/B00BWXCZSE/ref=sr_1_5
