Gellibaff help!

**rickysmiths** · 02-07-2009, 04:28 PM

I recently got some gellibaff to use in the paddling pool in the garden. It worked great today, everyone loved it but it doesn't seem to be dissolving fully!

Is this what is supposed to happen? I put in the whole sachet of gellibaff and used the whole sachet of 'dissolver' to dissolve it and it's sort of half-dissolved!!

What do I need to do?!

Thanks x

i think i remember someone on here once saying that table salt dissolved it, ive never used it though so don't blame me if it expands rather than dissolving! lol

Chucked mine in a bin bag....at least you did yours outside, think of the mess in my lounge...what a dohnut....never again!

It says on the packet that it doesn't fully dissolve but leaves 'some residue' (or words to that effect. I chucked more water in so it was runnier, emptied it into a bucket and poured it down the plug....

The instructions said not to pour it on the grass as slippery....

Just add a bit more water and through it down the drain, I've done it twice and it hasn't blocked up yet!

Hello I'm back now! Last mindee just gone.

Thanks for all the advice I think we will go for the watering down and in the drain option.

We will have our tea first though, we are all exausted after 2 hours of water fun, we all got soaked and cooled off!

Sally if the drain blocks can I send the bill to you?
