Well, we're still scratching our heads about what to try next to get the characteristics right. I'll let you know when one of us has a brain wave!!
Here's a funny story, though. Someone I've been working with on formula refinements had an idea that they wanted me to try. The rough lab sample I got on Monday was so stinky that I nixed it! Seriously -- it had my gag reflexes going so badly I had to open the windows to let in some fresh air. Not only would nobody buy the stuff twice, I didn't want to have a pile of it anywhere near my house!! Yuck! What an adventure!! At least I didn't have to buy 500-1000 pounds of that one to see if it worked or not. And I know someone is going to ask: yes, I did try it with both knife and gouge -- and no, it didn't carve enough better to make it worthwhile to wear a gas mask while cutting. LOL!

Hmmm, wonder if that would be a wild animal deterrent? It would certainly be a muggle deterrent! Could be a selling point, you never know!

Meh. Not likely, my dawg likes to roll in the stinkiest stuff she can find, it's more likely to be a critter magnet.
YMMV, and invariably will...
