@brooklyn2609 You don't seal it or it may explode, unless that is the preferred outcome. You put it in a reasonably open container like styrofoam box. It's safe to transport in a car assuming you have some air flowing. Just don't stay in closed spaces with it or you may suffocate. If it's pure as it usually is then you just use it as such. Don't touch is too much with bare skin though or you'll get instant frostbite.

where do you buy dry ice?

[decod31]

@okpapereat

AGA, a company that sells all kinds of gas products. I don't know if they exist in your country though. Dry ice is pretty common so it should be relatively easy to find. You could even get it from a large grocery store.

@okpapereat ya check your grocery store

won't touching the dry ice give you frost bite?

[decod31]

Depends on your touch ;-)

There is a limited amound of thermal conductivity involved so if you're careful it's not bad.

It can of course give you problems and I know people who have gotten pretty bad frost bites from dry ice, but it's ok if you're reasonably careful.

is it safe to drink coke with dry ice??

[decod31]

Generally it is and I've done it. You can of course ask the company you buy it from just to be sure (that it is pure).

[pphantom98]

i can buy some at a grocery many grocery stores such as safeway

[WiiFanAdde]

Well it is a little problem there is like 20 miles to the nearest "shop" who sells it...

[WiiFanAdde]

Can u please tell me where u got that?!! OMFG THAT WAS NICE!!!

[decod31]

The dry ice was bought from AGA. It's a company that supplies gases. I think it was 2 eur/kg or so. Relatively cheap.

[WiiFanAdde]

But i have been on AGA´s website but it isn´t any button to like "buy here" or "put in cart" so i dont know how to buy it:/

[decod31]

I just went to their closest location and asked for it. They probably don't deliver small orders. Considering that this stuff evaporates totally in a day or so you'll need to time your use anyway. I guess you could call them and ask how to get it.
