xxxx,

Rumors will be rumors, at the current time there are no plans to remove this item from our line.
Rest assured that the No. 9 Plus BP solvent is NOT slated to be discontinued.

Optics Planet has it in stock and ready to go.
and it looks like midway usa will be getting more next week.

Thank you sir!

Or, just boil some water and throw a little soap in it, and take the money you would have spent on a commercial solution and buy more powder...
