<<  Next:  Organic chemistry help please.  I am looking for a solvent
that can soften and dissolve polycarbonate soda bottles.  This might enable
us to make many kinds of small plastic parts while recycling evil plastic. 
A similar solvent for plastic grocery bags could also be useful.   Melting
with heat does not seem to work well.   What to try?
Turpentine?  MEK?  Acetone? Various Alchohols?  It should be something
available by the gallon at Home Depot.  No benzine, please.   >>

Richard,   I recall that Lindsey Publications had a book on injection
molding plastics.  IIRC, it mentions soda bottles specifically.  I can't
lay my hands on the latest catalog, but I know they are on the internet.
