Q & A PAGE

Abbreviations:

Q.S. – quantity sufficient – this is the amount applicable to how much you want to use.

Using preservatives –  When you are making products for reselling you will more than likely have to use a preservative.  We supply 3 different preservatives:  Kemaben, Euxyl and potassium sorbate.  You will find the usage amounts when you view the product under speciality chemicals.  I dont give recommendations as you need to make the decision once you have read the information you require on the product.

Important :  BEFORE MAKING BIG BATCHES OF PRODUCTS ALWAYS MAKE SMALL TEST BATCHES FIRST.  THE RECIPES AND FORMULATIONS ARE GUIDELINES.  RESULTS CAN VARY WITH ADDITIVES, SKILL LEVEL, CLIMATE, INCORRECT MEASURING.
