Dude, i used DMSO (99.9% pure liquid) for three weeks when doing a Fina Cycle at 100gm ED (five crushed pellets) without results. After hitting an area more than three times consecutively i got a rash from it. Its a tricky chemical that has the ability to burn your skin if your not careful. Most guys go with the gel or use the liquid but add water to dilute it. I went for the full strength no water approach and, like i said, i got no results. That means that none of the stuff i was dissolving into the solution was getting into my blood stream. IMO Avoid DMSO as a transdermal, because it isn't very effective. Just my 2 cents...
