In reply to: Re: I'm following directions and still getting a wimpy stain! posted by Kenzi on August 27, 2001 at 22:18:44:

CCJ says to mix plain, wait until the stain develops, then add EO and
wait again. Kenzi says to mix with EO, wait, then add more EO and
use immediately? I'm so confused! Last time I was told that the
problem was i didn't wait long enough to mix in the oils. What have
othe people's experiences been?
I'm going to mix up some both ways and let y'all know what happens.
sigh...

: Lauren, the only thing in your procedure that might be the cause
: would be the 12 hour wait after adding the cajeput. I would use
the
: paste right away after adding the cajeput. A friend of mine used a
: totally dead paste that had been mixed 2 years ago (!!) and frozen
: since then. She added about 20 drops of cajeput to one j-bottle of
: paste and used it. The color came out pretty well considering the
: age of the paste. I find that I get better color if I add cajeput
to
: a paste that I created 2-3 days before and already added cajeput
to.
: Does that make sense?
:
: If all else fails, maybe it is your powder or the fact that you
froze
: it.
