PERFECT SLIME RECIPE

Purex Sta-Flo Liquid Starch, 64 Ounce
PRO TIP: Making slime with LIQUID STARCH and glue is a ton easier than mixing borax to do it. Simply use about 1tsp in 4 oz of glue (you can stir in some food coloring or paint to color before you add) and then add starch little by little until you get the slime consistency you want. We use red solo cups to do this and once it’s mostly sticky, we pull out of the cup and start to mix with our hands. If the slime is still sticky, that means you need more liquid starch. As the slime starts to get perfect, it will not stick to your hands anymore. Keep kneading it as it starts to peel off your hands and it will be perfect. Depending on how much glue we pour, it usually tends to be about a half a cup overall. Scroll down to see a video on the process.
It can be pretty hard to find liquid starch, so pick this one up here (it’s the one I use) as well as a huge thing of glue so you can make tons of slime for all occasions. Buying this way is a lot more cost effective and once you start making slime, you will def want to have glue on hand! This went out of stock for a good month so make sure you buy it now that its back.
