If you filtered out the binders before adding the oil, what are you trying to seperate??...

You know when the gunk has to settle to the bottom..Shyt is staying at the top..not sinking...i dunno why....

I usually don't use kits, so I may not be much help.....The last time I did use a kit I let the mixture sit for about 8 hours........good luck

refilter it

Re filter what im lost....Im talking about the step when you add the oil to the pellet and ba mix...then you shake it up then let the binders settle to the bottom and then start your whatman filtering...for some reason the gunk is not moving it staying at the top...looks like it settled backwards or somethin.......usually it breaks apart then settles at bottom...im cluless

**Drummerboy** · 03-14-2005, 02:44 AM

just let them sit in the solvent for a few hours first, then filter or add oil then filter, whatever

I did that step already then added the oil then shook it up but the binders are not settling..this is after sitting 24 hrs

ehh i tried shakin it all up again and reheating with almost boiling water...The binders went straight to the bottom within minutes....i think i didnt have the water hot enough when i heated it up the first few times....question...all this heat doesnt mess up the fina right?
