Fullers Earth

The best line sinkant formula, better than any proprietary pastes on the market:

  1. Mix Fullers Earth with washing-up liquid, until you get a thick paste
  2. Add a few drops of Glycerine to prevent it drying out.
  3. Store and carry in air-tight film cannister.

What's fuller's earth?

And washing-up liquid I assume is liquid hand soap?

Very curious.

Hi Bp- thanks for looking in. Fullers Earth is basically dry clay powder. You will find a page on it on Wikipedia at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuller's_earth

Yes, liquid hand soap would work.

You use a scent-free soap I imagine? Any particular brand?

Any brand of liquid soap will do - the best to use are those for washing dishes as they are cheaper. Scent-free is best but I have not found scent giving any problems.
