What's "amonnia-d"?

Do you mean "ammonia". That comes in various concentrations and purities
from janitorial supply houses and laboratory suppliers in most countries.

The strongest is "specific gravity 0.880", known colloquially as
"eight-eighty", and is quite unpleasant stuff. Avoid skin contact, and
don't breathe the vapor. Get it in your eyes, and you'll need surgery, if
not a white stick.

The weaker stuff sold for household cleaning is much less harmful, but
still pungent and irritating.

I would suggest that, if you can't spell the name, you're not into
chemistry, and you need to seek the help/advice of someone who is.

I know its in window cleaner stuff and know its nasty and can dry the skin
etc. I'm into electronics not chemistry, Dont ask where these 2 things
cross cos its one hec of a long story. Though im guided by someone whos used
the stuff so all isn't *too* bad...

Ammonia-D seems to be the trade-name of miracle ingredient X that makes new

improved Windex window cleaner better than it used to be.

As an aside, we use an ammonia/ammonium persulphate mix for stripping copper
plate from steel, the ammonia addition inhibits any etching of the steel
surface and possibly accelerates copper solution. I've used it for pcbs, you
don't lean over the dish - as you say, it certainly clears the nasal
passages.

Ammonium persulphate does clean PCB's very well...just don't leave them in
too long!...I have seen a number of boards with no copper left after only a
short time!
