Troubleshooting - Bubbles around Soap Imbeds

twaburds · Jul 1, 2016

Hi!

I have made small shapes with mp which I am embedding in clear mp but when I do this I am getting tiny clear bubbles around the embed and it doesnt look good.

Any ideas how to get rid of them? Should I be spraying my soap embed with rubbing alc

Thanks

Ashley

I'm certainly no M&P expert so hopefully some that are will chime in, but here's my take on it. Anytime you join melted MP to firm set MP, you have to liberally spray with alcohol to ensure adhesion and remove any air bubbles. So in your case (putting the firm embeds into the melted soap) I think you need to spritz both with alcohol. Hopefully this solves your problem and good luck!

You need to spritz the soap with alcohol before and after adding the embeds.

Also spray your embeds with alcohol well
