great thread hush! thanks for sharing so much information.
I've got a few questions for you...I had been using 99% for a while and always got something similar to what you're creating but when I switched to denatured alcohol i ended up with a less sticky product. Have you ever tried denatured alcohol? Second, if you were to allow it to dry even further on your plate....what would it do? I ask this because recently I forgot about a plate I had evaporating on a heat pad and when I came home to it, it was bone dry. I scraped it with a razor and ended up with a powdery substance. It is very dry and not sticky but it melts very nicely. How can I end up with the shatter that you're getting? Did I leave it on the pad too long or is it possible to leave it on to long?
Keep up the great work!!!
