Ask one of the sellers here, they have been helpful in the past.
Or distill nitro RC-fuel.
I would choose the first option.

Problem is that I dont really know eastern european sellers, Ive heard merlin nitro fuel contains pure nitromethane (the 99,8%) one, but I cant find
any sellers for that, I dont find any sellers you have any tips for me?

16% Nitromethane is allowed for the members of the general public, a higher concentration requires a license or an approved commercial demand. This
rule is valid in the whole EU.

So it´s down to 16% now, it will be completely removed eventually i think or lowered to 9%.
It used to be much higher %, i have a 5 liter pail with 40% nitro for my RC stuff but i guess that cant be bought any more now.
I think they aim for it to reach 9% as the methanol-nitromethane azeotrope is 9% and if the sold NM is at 9% or below you cant distill out pure NM
from that.
At least not without any extra steps.
Luckily there are a few sellers that can supply pure NM if you need it.
It´s one of those chemicals that are seen very dangerous by the politicians but there are much more dangerous stuff that arent even restricted.
