I had a guy comwe over and was telling me about his process. He said he uses Liquid KOH with good results. Does anyone else use it? What are the down falls useing liquid versus dry flake?

I've tried it several times, but never got it to work well. The liquid KOH I used was 45%. The liquid in the liquid KOH is WATER! We work so hard to keep water out of the "mix" why would you want to introduce water in?

Thats what I was thinking. He water washes so he can dry his BD, I dry wash so it probably would not work for me anyway. I would have to add another process for drying before Dry Wash. I think I will stick with what im doing. Thanks
