1 tablespoon of borax then mix it then add a little bit of borax water mixture to glue water mixture at a time until the slime forms u can also add lotion or shaving cream. Add 1 teaspoon of clear borax to glue mix at a time and mix as you start to see glue curdle, start to mix with your hands and fingers clumping curdled glue together with your it feels firm to touch but mix is still a creamy colour,grind and mix it back in with your fingers back to a paste texture and Add 1/4 teaspoon more of borax this stage it is very temperamental so minimal use of borax is needed for desired viscousity of your slime.clump together again and glue will separate from water leaving colured water dye only.
The most popular recipe I was finding online used foam soap, hand lotion, contact solution, shaving cream, corn starch, water, and borax - waaay too many ingredients for me. Because we've noticed that the amount of liquid starch needed varies wildly from slime to slime (depending a ton on what you add to it - food coloring, liquid watercolors, glitter, etc), I really recommend adding whatever amount of glue you'd like (we usually make a slime batch with two bottles of clear glue.
Don't worry, we won't make a toxic version that might turn your pet turtle into a monster, but rather a fun version you can add glitter and food coloring to. And since we are scientists, we'll also learn about the chemical principles that allow us to turn two common household items - glue and liquid starch - into the fantastic compound that has both the properties of solids and liquids: slime. Add ¼ cup of Sodium Tetraborate (Borax) Solution to the glue and water mixture and stir slowly. 5.) Add borax solution a teaspoon at a time until the mixture forms a clump in the bowl.
- Add the mixture of glue and water to the mixture of borax and water while stirring gently. To make slime (borax-free) you need Elmers glue, contact lens solution, baking soda, and food coloring (or washable paint). Hi Kayla, sorry to hear your slime came out sticky, it's possible you need to add more contact lens solution to bond the ingredients together.
Add 1 tablespoon contact solution and stir well- if the mixture is quite sticky add one more tablespoon and mix well. Add the purple glue mixture to your borax water, stirring slowly as you pour it. You can add a bit of borax-and-water solution or liquid starch if you don't want it at all sticky.
How to make slime less sticky
Now it's time to pour your glue mixture into the big bowl with the borax and water mixture. 4) Add the contact lens solution slowly, and stir and knead the mixture until it becomes thick and putty-like. Step 6: If needed to make slime less sticky, add more contact lens solution, ¼ tablespoon at a time.
