pine tar

[jkevin]

so I thought I would get outside the box a little and do a pine tar in the pot swirl that night I thought it was a bad idea, don't ask why just thought that so cubed it up and put it in the crock pot this morning. my thought I guess was it would be way to gooey to use and prob. a little harsh on the skin

What were you looking to swirl it with? Would take some colour to fight against The Tar

 

[jkevin]

I had the pine tar in a cup to keep it warm and viscous and just poured into the batter a few stirs later it was over. now that I rebatched it, it is so easy to work with think I found a new way (for me) to do pine tar soap just an extra step is all

 

[The Efficacious Gentleman]

Would that not mess up the amount of lye and so on, or did you have the pine tar as a batter rather than a raw oil?

 

[jkevin]

no it was raw oil I read in a earlier post don't remember who but they said pine tar wont saponify 100% that's kinda where I got the idea now I look back kinda dumb idea

I would never have used to to just swirl without adding it do my batter. That would be a mess I would think.

 

[The Efficacious Gentleman]

While it doesn't saponify 100%, I'd still want to make sure all the oils were evenly distributed with my lye, or the parts without pine tar might have too much

 

[jkevin]

your absolutely right that's what came to me that night
