OK, I am working at getting my messages under control and I've gone through about 10 messageson this stuff. I know what it is. Since I haven't gone through my 80 million other messages yet, maybe you've already found it all out. If so, sorry it took me so long.

Its "Whimsy Dip" and we used it for a couple years as "Queen of the Craft Cabana" at 4-H camp on Kelleys Island. It was great fun, but even in the open aired pavilion, an entire day with that project would find me very uh... whimsical. Actually, laughing on the floor while trying to help get dinner ready.

It was made by a company in ElCajon, CA (San Diego). I say was, because a friend of mine wanted to get some for a camp she had and when she called the factory they were in the process of paking up all the equipment because government legislation had shut them down due to the excessive toxicity and reports of serious skin burns. Personally, I never had or saw anyone burned by it, but man was that stuff a riot to work with.
