Hey LaDonna

Too funny, I was googling about finding the liquid test kit and your comment here popped up on my search results.

Try these two

Hi LaDonna…..A 20 year old test I would imagine would be long gone. They now have better testing.

You might have already gone to these web sites but here are a few I found.

Does anyone know about a formaldehyde test kit that is a clear liquid in which a drop can be put on anything to determine if there is formaldehyde out gassing? I used this nearly 20 years ago to determine the source of my overexposure which had been confirmed by a blood test. When a drop was placed on something it would go from clear to dark purple, depending on the amount/severity of the formaldehyde that was out gassing from that object. If there was no formaldehyde it would stay clear. I don’t remember what that chemical was or where I got it and am having no luck Googling for it. Anyone know about this??? thank you, LaDonna
