Thread: Does alum melt?

I was saying I couldn't find it in normal stores. Walmart, Safeway, Kroger etc. I never tried Asian markets. To today! I found some! I paid like 2 dollars for 21 oz. This will last forever! And it has quite a few uses, so ill be good for ages!!

Thanks for the help guys,

Parker

PS: can't potassium alum be used for both a deodorant and a AS?

Yes it can - though I kind of like the scent thing going on in deodorants.. maybe use both?

Or, I'll just use extra cologne

Don't tell Parker that!!!

Oh my gosh. That would be horrible. Touching it, hurt bad. Water, horrible pain! Alum, or any other astringent, don't even get me started!!!!
