Slime Care

IMPORTANT: Clean Hands and Surfaces

  • Always play with clean hands! Wash your hands thoroughly with soap, scrubbing under your nails, before playing.
  • Clean surfaces: Always wash the surface you put your slime on before and after playing.
  • Prevent mold: Playing with clean hands and on clean surfaces helps prevent mold from developing on your slime.

Handling Sticky Slime

  • Initial Stickiness: Your slime may arrive sticky or become sticky after play due to temperature, body heat, or skin dryness.
  • For Clear Slime:
    1. Add a few drops of activator to your hands.
    2. Touch the slime until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • For Other Slime Types:
    1. Add one or two drops of activator directly to the slime in the tub.
    2. Gently fold the activator into the slime.
    3. Repeat if necessary until the slime has the perfect feel.

Fixing Melted Slime

  • When melted (very liquidy) due to heat:
    1. Pour the slime into a medium mixing bowl.
    2. Stir in a few drops of activator at a time until it forms a perfect blob.
    3. Leave it untouched for a few days to clear up again.

Caution with Activator

  • Too much activator: Adding too many drops will make your slime lose its stretch and break apart.
  • Adjust carefully: Go slowly when adjusting stickiness to avoid over-activating.

Fixing Over-Activated Slime

  • If over-activated: Add more glue, glycerin, or water to thin out the slime.
  • Knead until perfect: Knead the slime until it reaches your desired consistency.

Softening Hard Clay Slime

  • If too hard: Add non-scented lotion and knead until it’s the perfect consistency.

Activator Preparation

  • Activator Solution:
    1. Take the small packet of white powder (½ teaspoon of borax powder).
    2. Add it to ½ cup of warm water.
    3. Stir until completely dissolved.

WARNING

  • Borax activator solution should not be ingested. Clearly mark the bottle to avoid confusion, as it looks like water.
