Normally I would agree with Harper (because he’s a lot smarter and older than me). But ever since he claimed that water is incompressible I’ve felt compelled to clarify/correct his mis-information. 
Vulcanization does NOT take place at high temperatures. It takes place at a temperature slightly warmer than that of Earth (as Vulcan is a little hotter than Earth).
True Vulcanizing agents are VERY expensive since Vulcan is about 16 light years from Earth and neither UPS nor Fed-Ex ship from Vulcan.
