2. In a plastic container soak 2 cups of PAC-R in 5 liters of water and set aside for 2-3 days to completely soluble.

Preparing the Light Soda Ash solution and adding it to Sulfonic Acid 

1.  In a medium-sized basin pour about 4 litres of water, and add 2 cups of light soda ash. mix until completely dissolved.

2. Then slowly add the light soda ash solution to sulfonic acid, stirring continuously using a stick or stainless steel hand blender to give you a creamy paste.

 PART 5 of 5

Packaging and storage

1. Pour the liquid soap into a suitable transparent, squeezable spray plastic bottle that is made of PET (it is ideal because it stands up to fragrance oils or essential oils). Cover tightly.

2. Label and store in a cool place for external use only.

General Tips

*Some fragrance oils and essential oils have color of their own, so add them before you add the colorant. Liquid food colors work perfectly.

* If you are allergic to odours use a nose mask

* Use protective hand gloves on both hands

*When you want to prepare a large volume like say 50 liters, use 50.5 liters instead to avoid overspill.

*Measure the recipes accurately to avoid production errors.

* Dissolve the ingredients well to avoid lumps in the final product

* Chemical salts look similar, so label all salt recipes to avoid misplacement during production

* Know the difference between water-based color and oil-based color



FAQ
Q- How do I identify fruit colors and nonfruit colors?
A- The colors or natural pigment of a fruit are an important characteristic for its identification. Fruit colors are natural. No fruit colors are artificial colors that tend to be brighter and more stable than natural colors.

Q- Is it the type of color that is responsible for color change lightness in the thickness of liquid soap over time? Or other factors?
A- Yes, most unstable colorants can fade over time as a result of sensitivity to sunlight exposure. Your best bet for a very stable color would be oxides. 

Q- In the making of liquid soap with PAC-R, can STTP and foam booster be added, and at what stage?
A- I haven't heard of using STTP to make liquid soap. It isn't an ingredient in liquid soap. The only way I make liquid soap is with soda ash.
