Be careful with the hardware store salt. The salt we eat is sodium chloride (and that is what you're expected to use for dyeing as well). The salt used for de-icing can be variety of things, or a mix of different things, including calcium chloride and magnesium chloride. I doubt you'll get the expected results with another salt. As for farm supply, this should be the right kind. You might also be able to find some at hunting supply stores, although it's usually sold in blocks there. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
