sudsy Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Liquid soap is a whole different animal, even uses a different lye. You have to make a paste, let it sit and then dilute it. To my knowledge you can't make it by melting/diluting regular soap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katshe Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 I know that it is another process with potassium hydroxide, but found a couple recipes making it out of bar soap so I thought I'd try it out, Now I wish I had not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 You CAN make it that way, but the texture is odd.Oh I take my scraps, grind or chop them really well and put them in water to get snot - which my kids think is funny (I don't). But it's always snotty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NyAshia Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Yep, snot. That's a good description. Stumbled across that by accident LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibiscus Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Yep, verrry slimy and snotty. I made some by mistake while soaking my croc that had left over rebatch soap in it. I forgot about it for two days and when I went back to it, there was a half pot of slimy snotty liquid soap that smelled really good:laugh2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibiscus Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I threw it out. I make laundry detergent the same way as I make LS I simply use a different formula and add stuff to it and it cleans as well as any of the commercial brands. I did try the snot making method once though:laugh2: and it wasn't any fun. If I had known that cp soap snotted easier than fels naptha I would have used that for my first attempt...
