By the time I got 3 or 4 half bottles of thick Sally's sitting in my desk draw, I decided to buy a can of acetone and now just add a dash when it gets thick.

I don’t use head cement often so it lasts me a long long time. I just go get a new bottle when it gets goopy and it goopy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The pink and chartreuse are also single stranded mop chenille, but it's a little stiffer material. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
