Why doesn't gasoline or paint thinner melt through Styrofoam when I try it yet there are videos of others melting Styrofoam in gasoline and paint thinner? Is there something I am doing wrong? This is the link to the paint thinner, I used. http://www.kleanstrip.com/uploads/products/Paint-Thinner-gallon-metal-GKPT94002-900.jpg
For gasoline, I used gasoline from a jerrycan which was sitting for a couple of months.
Please help me out by pointing out where and how I might have made a mistake. No excessive chemistry terminologies please. I am merely a fourth grader ( guardian ) trying to work this out.
Thank you, Guardian of fourth grader
