Hey

 

I have been looking about at silicone oils to use with boric acid to make silly putty. I have found a place that can supply silicone oil but i could do with some advice on the viscosity of the silicone oil that I should use for making silly putty. Low Medium High etc..

 

Would mixing boric acid with white glue work as well ? I want to buy some of this stuff and find out but i want to make sure im using the rite thing :D

 

Cheers !

Does PVA glue and Borax powder make silly putty or does it make slime ?

 

Also does it just need to be normal white glue ? Or does it need to be Elmers?

 

Thanks :D!
