Question about Coke

Very interested in the drug trade and know a lot of you dnm'ers are very educated on this sort of thing. I'm looking to learn more about how cocaine is converted into liquid and put onto material such as clothing to be smuggled through customs and how it is retrieved after

I saw that shit in Archer and didn't think it was real lol

They make a car body made entirely of cocaine, then they just drive it across the border hoping that Sgt. Stedenko doesn't catch them.

It's definitely real, it's crazy the stealth and creativity going into this. I feel as if it will more mail based now that these new methods are being used

Powder/rock cocaine is soluble in a number of solvents including water and ethanol. Once you have it in solution you can then impregnate it on some material or transport it as a liquid. If you put it on some material and let it dry all you need to do is reverse the process later by immersing the material in another solvent which will draw out the cocaine and then evaporate that solution.

Some interesting examples I found:

Last year they catched some guys who soaked clothes in liquid c, let them dry and send it with mail. (Was a theater group, so there where a loooot of clothes). The plan was do wash it out again when they arrived. They got busted because of the weight difference on the boxes (freight documents). So you can do a lot of shit ;-)


[1 Points] FreeTradeCocaine:

Cocaine chloride can be impregnated in almost any liquid absorbing material the only problem arises when they use narcotest a liquid which colours purple blue when brought into contact with cocaine impregnated products. To counter this the chemists de-molecularize the cocaine or reoxidized base. This is called neutralizing. Narcotest does not react on the alkaloids but on the chemicals used in the proces of making cocaine chloride. Neutralized cocaine or base can be impregnated in plastic rubber and a myriad of other materials. We use all of these methods with our bulk orders but they require basic chemistry knowledge to recuperate.

Coca Negra powder, look it up. Also can be converted to plastic/putty (slightly more complex, but doable) or into a liquid (which is as simple as adding water).

Then you separate ingredients through a series of washes and A/B extraction.

Just boof it

Liquid as in freebase? I don't believe thats for transportation, thats a different kind of high.
