Amazon Basics Slime Activator Solution 946 ml — Baking Soda

This slime activator liquid from amazon Basics helps turn white or clear school glue into stretchy, squishy homemade slime for play and crafts. It comes in a 1 quart (946 ml) bottle and simplifies the slime-making process by replacing contact lens solution and baking soda when used with the appropriate glue, according to the manufacturer.

Key Points

The solution is designed to help achieve the right slime consistency for poking, pulling, and squishing during sensory play. It rinses easily from skin and most fabrics which makes cleanup faster after craft sessions. Note the product conforms to ASTM D-4236, and it carries the manufacturer warning that it is not suitable for children under three years due to small parts and choking risks.

Technical Specifications

• Name: amazon Basics Slime Activator Solution 1 QT (946 ml)
• Volume: 946 ml
• Appearance: Transparent liquid
• Includes: Bottle of activator only, glue not included
• Safety note: Conforms to ASTM D-4236

Usage Recommendations

Measure the activator gradually into a bowl of glue while stirring to reach the desired texture, adding more or less until the slime detaches from the sides and becomes less sticky. For colored or glitter slimes, mix pigments or embellishments into the glue first, then add the activator slowly to avoid over-crosslinking. For easier cleanup, work on a wipeable surface and have wet wipes or soap and water nearby since the product washes from hands and many fabrics.

Nuances and Limitations

According to the manufacturer, this activator is intended to be used with accommodating liquid glues and may not perform the same with all adhesive types. It does not include glue, and results will vary depending on glue formulation, amount of activator added, and mix-ins used. Take care to supervise younger children during use and follow safety guidance on the label.
