While reading up on LS making, I found a lot of tips on how to influence the thickness of the diluted soap, but I was wondering if there's a way to influence the thickness of the soap paste itself? And how thin can soap paste get before adding water? I'm sorry if this is a weird or inappropriate question. Maybe it needs some morebackground. Basically I'm experimenting with paper soap for the October challenge. One of the materials I use instantly dissolves when in contact with water, which is theoretically great but makes it impossible to spread liquid soap on it. So now I'm playing around with the idea of using a thin as possible soap paste to spread on the material in the hopes of preventing it from dissolving. (I've been using old store-bought liquid hand soap for my experiments so far. But I can't control the water amount so I thought it's time to get into LS making myself:D )
