Interesting way to see it. On the last problem, after a week or so of fussing, I added external heat with light bulbs and it took it another few days to finally go off. This one's still sticky this morning, but there is slight improvement.

I did mix it very carefully, and stir it very thourally. Thouraghlly. I mixed, 'er real good. I use measuring cups exclusively. It was a small batch tho. Actuall the smallest I could make in the small cup, 15 ml, or 15g. Could that be it? Perhaps the cups are less accurate at the small batch scale. I have successfully used a syringe to mix 3cc batches before... I really dont think it's blush because it feels a little "gummy". I can actually press a fingerprint in if I try. And even the worst case isnt all that bad; I discovered last night by accident that the electric heat gun will soften it up considerably. I bet that and vinager would dissolve it. And they are just hatches, I can always rebuild them.
