"Out of thin air" is a common idiom[0]. Probably not needed, but not an unusual thing to say in this context either.

Fucks up your enzyme kinetics and is much more expensive than Fiji. Would not recommend.

Thick air would be polluted or misty, I think we use 'thin air' to emphasise there was no apparent substance to the air.
