Thanks everybody !!!
@MonteeSS- It holds the perfect amount so didn't need to top off too much!!! I know 1/2 of salt per 1 cup of plastic is a bit much but I've tried a bit more and a bit less and doesn't work the way I like it. 1/2 is perfect for me ! also adding 1/4 cup of softner
@Big Ray- I always stand and always wear long sleeves. Better safe than sorry. I wear a respirator, glasses, gloves, have a fan blowing and keep the shed door open. At first I didn't but had a few close calls and little burns so I learned my lesson. Right now im using Do-It's soft plastic. I've tried others but I like the Do-it's.
@Bob La Londe- I use 1/2 cup of salt per 1 cup of plastic and 1/4 cup of softener. Works great !!! I guess with the sinking plastic a little less salt would work. TO get the sink rate I want 1/2 cup works for me.
