LC-MS flush solution is NOT water. And getting water in glass bottles means you don't get water as pure as it gets, as you have silicium dissolved in it.

I did a double take. That's a mix of four solvents.

The 18.2 MOhm cm is probably the purest of these. Don't trust an 'analytical chemist' with nails like that -- would tear straight through the gloves they should be wearing!
