    Gotcha. Apparently I was unprepared for the level of detail that would be asked. The Mfg of the detergent listed ingredients are Surfactants, Water, Fragrance Dye. The chemist said it has a PH of 6.5

    Update: But first I'm not sure what to think about folks claiming I won't disclose the ingredients of the detergent that I buy. I really think that is odd. Anyway. I made a lard soap just to get my first soap out of the way. Mixed my stuff in there at 50% by volume. It didnt keep its shape...

    Yes I called the small company that makes the detergent for me and spoke with the Chemist. No concerns with adding lye to my mixture. Gassing off was before they corrected the formula for me years back. I believe I will make a coconut soap and use my soap as an additive and see how much I can...

    Exactly. Even before you spoke up Alfa I had decided to make a coconut oil soap and see how much of my cleaner I can get away with adding to it and it still remain a bar. Experiment coming up. 50/50 and 1/1

    One ingredient is provided by another company. I doubt people are making their own lye and olive oil but claim they make their soap.

    I have the SDS sheet for the detergent but all of those chemical names probably won't help you help me. But will help with the labeling. I have been making this cleaner for probably 6 years and the bar is the next step in the evolution.

    That is helpful. My never before having made soap mind was thinking using my cleaner already mixed up and making a bar soap from it. Sounds like I need to make a multiple step process with it not already mixed.

    I don't know the ingredients. Maybe this will help it's a concentrated industrial dish washing detergent. They formulated it for me because it was gassing off unpleasant smells the first few times I mixed it up. I'm not trying to be evasive. I have not made soap from scratch before. The...

    Mostly pumice can't provide the cleaning agent ingredients it's formulated for me by another company. Hope that helps.

    Job interviews

    I have gone to several recently. Be prepared for "Behavioral" based interview questions. the STAR method is how you should respond. Situation Task Action Result. Not trying to scare you but they want to know how you react in specific scenario situations. You can reply with any life event it...

    I have been making this amazing cleaner for several years. Originally as a hand cleaner but found it does an incredible job on anything that can be cleaned using water. It only takes a rounded 1/4 tsp to clean the dirtiest mechanic hands. As a result it requires a lot of water when it's being...
