[pct-l] TP decomposition

[Paul Bodnar]

That is a great idea to use marine or RV TP.  I will get some marine/RV TP and do a side by side comparison with household TP.  

 

For the tests I conducted I used Charmin Ultra Soft, probably not the best for degradation.

 

Is there any other type of TP I should test?

 

Thanks for your great comments.

 

Paul
