Thanked: 2259Slake time
Well, here's another one of my strange ideas that I've noticed in my travels..
Has anyone else noticed that soaps and creams seen to improve if left to just sit for a minute of two after beating into a lather? I works for aggregates, where it's called slake time, and i can understand what's happening there... allowing a little time for all the dry components of cement, grout etc. to become thoroughly wetted. I can't imagine why this action would be needed for soaps and creams, but i've proven this to myself repeatedly...
Anyone else, or is this just another indication that I see things differently from the mainstream?
No problem with that really, as I've made a life's work out of it... I often don't follow prescribed dogmas.. So much so that I often feel like a salmon fighting it's way upstream!
All thoughts are welcome... Even those that may prove me wrong!
