Preparation against warts

Diphenyl cyclopropanone 0.5 percent in olive oil 5ml and acetone 5ml

Answer

You cannot dilute olive oil with acetone; this can with chloroform or ether or a mixture of both. Great exception is the solubility of castor oil in alcohol.

I find in the literature just back a 0.01% solution in acetone   but without oil.  

I wonder, given the use for warts, to what extent Colllodion could qualify???
