Can CP be used as MP?

[kdot]

I primarily make CP soap, but continue to get requests for the shapes and creativity of MP. I tried to melt a bar of my CP, but it didn't "melt". What is it that makes MP "meltable?" Is there a way to use CP to make a brick of soap to be used later as MP?

Thanks!

What makes MP meltable is the use of solvents, usually a mixture of various alcohols added after HPing the soap and getting it cooked through.

Thanks FlyBy. That makes sense - good answer.

^^^
the link that DeeAnna posted is the easiest way to make MP just by adding glycerine. essentially, any recipe will do, you just need to do it the hp way. however, if you want a clearer soap, you might want to consider using more solvents (like alcohol, propylene glycol, sorbitol, even surfactants).
