RE: Magic Wash

Some grocery stores offer carbon and ion filtered water which is the
next best thing.  You can always just boil some up and tap the
distillate from the pot lid into a funnel and into a bottle.  Time
consuming, but not difficult to do.  Remember to store in a glass
bottle, as distilled water, lacking a lot of ions and minerals will draw
out chemicals, ions and stuff from plastic, metal and non-glazed
ceramics.
