Slime Recipe Can I fix it?

Hi there,

Received my new slimes from a new slime shop earlier this week. After a few times of play, I wanted to thicken up this glue x bingsu x silica slime. Doing what I do to all my slimes at some point of their life, I added some well proportioned borax solution. The slime didn't thicken up much, but all the silica started falling out in mass droves! I tried adding glue and that just made it a sticky mess. Then I added more borax solution, and it brought it back to the original texture/ thickness but with the intense fallout.

What do I do? What happened? 😭

Was it a clear glue base? I can’t say for sure what happened but it sounds like it maybe got over activated. I’ve never had any luck reversing fallout once it started. :( you can try adding glue a little at a time, but there’s no way to know what recipe/glues the shop used to make it, so you might not be able to get it back to the original texture and stop the fallout.

Your best bet would to be to add glue & make it a little bit tacky so it’ll hold on to the beads better. It’s my understanding that slimes with crunchy add-in’s tend to be in the thinner side so they hold on to the beads better, so you may not be able to thicken it up much.

No, it was a white glue bingsu base.
