: Incidentally the titanium dioxide will whiten the paste and make it
: appear a light greenish-brown color instead of the dark green ‘goose
: poop’ color. I rather like this side effect because then I can
: easily see a color change in the paste.

Ahhhhhh..... so that explains the odd color of some of those
tube pastes ... and some other pre-mades that I'd heard had an intense
medicinal scent, a pale color and a knockout stain! (labeled 100%
henna, yeh, Riiiiiiiight)

More things to try in persuit of different strategies for different
needs! If the titanium dioxide doesn't interfere with the stain, and
helps the texture ... and if the terpines not only knock the color up
through the roof but perhaps deter demise with there is no oxygen ...
and inerting during mixing may slow or prevent demise too .......


hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm "Watson, what does this tell us? "My dear Holmes
....." (actually Sherlock is the name of my pugdog and he's not saying
much).
