so you're remaking the glow stick... big deal... why don't you try making the dye (that is what you're paying for)... the rest of the stuff is common knowledge...

Why go through all the trouble? You buy a glow tube from Wal-Mart and use the Phenol, but change the Hydrogen Peroxide? In the video, when you first turn off the lights, you say you mix the Phenol with Kroger Hydrogen Peroxide, and it's not glowing all that much. Then you use the Hydrogen Peroxide from the glow stick, and it glows. So, why bother tearing apart a perfectly good glow stick? Am I missing something here, or is this a complete waste of time?

i would have liked science more if we had chem. classes like this at my school

Oh, nevermind. I see it's already in the dye from the glow stick.

Awesome! I want to do this pretty soon... you can pretty much get all these things at the drug store... I think... except for the Phenol.. where can I get that?

I Have A Question So You Mix Hydrogen Peroxide With The Stuff In The Glass Tube And Then Seal It Together And Then When You Break The Glass Tube The Stuff In The Glass Tube Along With The Hydrogen Peroxide Mixes With The Solution And You Get The Glow?
