SLIME CARE, TIPS FOR BEGINNERS & POLICY

WATCH THIS HELPFUL VIDEO IF YOU ARE NEW TO KY-SLIME OR A NEW SLIMER!  WE WANT YOU TO ENJOY THESE SLIMES AS MUCH AS WE DO! 

SLIME CARE 

It's normal for slimes to deflate or shrink over time or even turn to liquid.  Slime eventually does revert back to liquid over time. Especially if you let it sit without playing for a while or in warmer weather.  SO KEEP PLAYING AND ACTIVATING!!! 

SLIME ONLY LASTS FOR A FEW MONTHS.  It can last longer if you take care of your slime and if it's stored in A/C or a cool environment.  

For longer lasting slimes, keep playing and activating! Don't let it sit for a long time or let it sit in heat, sun or next to a window.  If you don't live in air conditioning,  you can store in fridge .  Or put in fridge 30 minutes or a couple hours before play time and then activate.  

Depending on the weather, your slime may arrive STIFF, STICKY OR MELTED.  THIS IS TOTALLY NORMAL!!  this is not the slime shop's fault.  Glue is very sensitive to heat, humidity & cold.  No matter where you buy your slime, they will all react the same. 
You will always need to adjust your slime to your climate! 
You can easily fix & and adjust your slimes! Just follow instructions below!↓

THINGS TO REMEMBER

  • Poke your slime with ONE FINGER to make sure it isn't too sticky
  • Make activator BEFORE attempting to touch your slime.  You most likely need to active slime every time you play. 
  • Wash your hands & apply lotion before touching slime (slime will leave a residue on dirty hands and will stick to your hands)  we suggest unscented lotion so the scent of your lotion will not clash with slime scents. DIRTY HANDS WILL DEFLATE SLIME FASTER. 
  • Play with slime on or over a clean table
  • Handle slime with quick movements so it doesn't stick to your hands.
  • Dirty hands will deflate slime and will shorten life of slime. 
  • Have fun and get creative, there is no wrong way to play with slime

HOW TO MAKE + USE ACTIVATOR

Use activator if you feel like your slime is too sticky or runny.
It's up to your own personal preference! :-)
  1. Add 1 tsp borax to 1 cup of hot water.
  2. Mix solution until the borax dissolves.  Keep mixing until borax granuals go away. Or it will not be effective.  
  3. Add solution to slime in SMALL AMOUNTS.
  4. Knead slime until not sticky. 
ADDING TOO MUCH ACTIVATOR → RUBBERY SLIME
NOT ADDING ENOUGH ACTIVATOR → SLIME WILL REMAIN STICKY

      GENERAL SLIME TIPS

      HARD? If it's cold out, your slime may be stiff. Warming it up with your hands will help. If it's still too hard you can try adding clear glue or white glue. 

      NOT STRETCHY?  simply add lotion to slime!

      MELTED?  If you slime arrives melted, put in fridge for a few hours or overnight.  Take out & activate until good consistency.  

      Remember: slime naturally melts over time!
      STICKY? Add activator in small amounts! Knead  and activate until slime is not sticky. 
      STILL STICKY? Not all slimes are meant to be holdable! Some slimes are meant to be played with on surfaces. You can also try poking and handling it quickly.

      SLUSHEE + FISHBOWL + FLOAM TIPS

      HARD? Try adding in some clear glue to soften it, but letting it sit in the sun or melt naturally is a safer way!
      BEADS FALLING OUT? Over-activating slime or adding anything else but glue will cause beads to fall out! Unfortunately, there is not much you can do to fix it after this.

      CLOUD SLIME TIPS 

      HARD? Try adding in some lotion or glue to soften it!
      CRUMBLING? Add activator in small amounts & knead until smooth. If you're too lazy to knead the lumps out, wait a day for the activator to absorb!

      CARING FOR YOUR SLIME

      Slime has a limited life span of a few months.  If you take care of your slime and store in a cool environment, your slime could last up to a year.  


      It is normal for slime to shrink and deflate over time!  Most of the time, all you have to do is activate (spray slime rescue) play, stretch & pull for a minute to inflate again. 

      1. Wash your hands before touching your slime to reduce the dirt, dust & bacteria in your slime.  Dirty hands will deflate slime faster and shorten the life of your slime.  Bacteria in the slime can also create mold in the slime as well. 
      2. Always keep your slime in its container with lid closed securely when you're not playing with it to prevent it from drying out or shrinking!
      3. Reactivate and play with slime frequently! It's difficult to activate slime that has completely melted. 
      4. Store in a cool dry place or in air conditioning.  Do not store near sun, direct sunlight or by a window.  Condensation can form inside the jar resulting in mold. 
      KEEP SLIME AWAY FROM CHILDREN UNDER 7 & ALL PETS. CHOKING HAZARD.
